Funko POP Hello Kitty: the new Sanrio wave on pre-order (July 2026)

The Glow in the Dark figures

Hello Kitty (#155)

Sanrio's mascot gets a glow-in-the-dark version: this Glow in the Dark Hello Kitty figure, in the Classic format of about 3.7 in (9.5 cm), has a finish that glows in the dark. It is number 155 in the range.

Cinnamoroll (#156)

The little white dog with long ears, one of Sanrio's most popular characters, also joins the Glow in the Dark series as number 156. Same vinyl format of about 3.7 in (9.5 cm), with the glow-in-the-dark effect.

Keroppi (#157)

Sanrio's well-known little green frog completes the glow-in-the-dark trio as number 157. It is a figure for fans of the brand's long-standing characters beyond Hello Kitty herself.

The Classic figures

Sleeping Hello Kitty (#154)

A calmer take on the mascot, this figure shows Hello Kitty in a sleeping pose. In the Classic format of about 3.7 in (9.5 cm), it is number 154.

Kuromi (#151)

A key character in the Sanrio universe, Kuromi arrives in the Classic format of about 3.7 in (9.5 cm) as number 151. Recognisable by her black jester-style devil hood with a pink skull, this mischievous rival of My Melody adds a more impish touch to the collection.

The mini Bitty Pop sets

Sanrio Town, Bitty Pop set

This Bitty Box set opens up into a diorama-style display and includes two vinyl Bitty Pop mini figures (about 0.8 in (2 cm)) in clear cases. Designed for both display and storage, it is compatible with other Bitty Pop figures, which can be swapped in to build your own scene. It is the most complete item in the wave.

Cinnamoroll, Bitty Pop Town

Another mini format for this small Bitty Pop scene themed around a Cinnamoroll café. With its miniature figures, it is a good way to start a Bitty Pop collection or add to a Sanrio display.

These seven new Sanrio POP figures are already available to pre-order, with arrival expected during July and August 2026.
