The little cat Hello Kitty is already 50 years old. To celebrate, Sanrio and Kurotani have announced two Hello Kitty gold figurines and a gold card. The figures and cards will be available in limited quantities with a serial number. They’re made of 24-karat gold and will be available for pre-order later this month.
The figures are in a wooden box with a mirror in it. One figure shows a seated Hello Kitty holding a 50 in her hand. It is limited to 25 pieces. There is also a dancing Hello Kitty, of which there are 50 copies.
The sitting Hello Kitty weighs 20 g and costs the equivalent of around 6,700 euros. The dancing Hello Kitty weighs only 6 g and is said to cost around 2,600 euros. There will also be a card showing Hello Kitty sitting surrounded by Sanrio characters. It costs around 1,400 euros and there will be 50 pieces available.
