Hello Kitty Funko POP: the new Sanrio figures on pre-order (September 2026)

Sanrio's best-known characters get a Christmas makeover from Funko: six new POP figures are up for pre-order, with release planned for September 2026. Most of them have a festive theme, joined by a Hello Kitty in rain gear. The range mixes standard POP figures and Bitty Pop mini figures, for fans of Hello Kitty and her friends.

The standard figures

Hello Kitty (#159)

Sanrio's best-known character wears a Santa hat and holds a present on this new standard POP. The small white cat with the red bow gets a festive look here.

Pochacco (#160)

Pochacco, the sporty and cheerful white dog with black ears, wears a green festive outfit. His POP shows his lively look and friendly character, and makes a change from Sanrio's usual lead characters.

Cinnamoroll (#161)

Cinnamoroll, the small white puppy recognisable by the long ears that let him fly, also wears a Santa hat. One of Sanrio's most popular characters keeps his gentle expression in this festive version, in the standard size of around 3.5 in (9 cm).

Hello Kitty (#162)

The fourth standard figure has a different theme: Hello Kitty swaps the Christmas setting for rain gear, with a bright yellow hooded raincoat over a light blue dress and a matching bow on her ear. It continues the numbering of the three previous figures but has a more spring-like feel, in the standard size of around 3.9 in (10 cm).

The Bitty Pop mini figures

Hello Kitty

From the Bitty Pop range, this miniature Hello Kitty comes with a small Christmas market and stands only 0.9 in (2.3 cm) tall. The small size means you can fit several characters on a shelf without taking up much space.

Cinnamoroll

Cinnamoroll also joins the Bitty Pop collection in a mini version. These figures of around 0.9 in (2.3 cm) are easy to collect and fit almost anywhere.

These six new Sanrio figures are expected in September 2026 and are already open for pre-order.
