Casio Baby-G celebrates 30th anniversary by getting a Hello Kitty 50th birthday design

Posted on by

I still have a pretty clear memory of me begging my parents to buy me a Baby-G watch when I was still a teenager and I didn’t have any money yet to get my own. I also remember buying anything that has a Hello Kitty design that I could afford back then, which wasn’t a lot since, as I mentioned, i didn’t have my own money just yet. Now that I am a full grown adult earning my own keep, my dreams for both may be about to come true as Casio is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Baby-G and Hello Kitty is turning 50.

Designer: Casio

Casio and Sanrio have announced a collaboration for the two brands with the brand new Baby-G model, the BGD565KT which features all the Hello Kitty things that you can fit in a watch. The watch design itself is based on the BGD-565 which sports the very first design of the Baby-G model which was launched back in 1994. It still has the usual watch features including shock resistance, 100M water resistance, LED backlight, multi-function alarms, stopwatch, countdown timer, and a 3-year battery life.

But of course, the star of this model is Hello Kitty herself. The entire watch has a total of 50 Hello Kitty details so you’ll get a kitty overload. This includes the band which has printed faces of the 1970s version of the cute feline as she’s laughing, winking, and looking surprised. You’ll also see her on the LCD when the backlight is on, with her distinguishable eyes, nose, and whiskers. The dial itself has a ribbon design so you get a Hello Kitty face on your wrist.

Since we’re celebrating milestones for both brands, the watch itself has a retro design which users like me wouldn’t really mind since this is all about cute nostalgia. Even the packaging is Hello Kitty-fied as it has a cloth pouch based on the design.

Japan Is Getting A Hello Kitty Bullet Train

Posted on by

Hello Kitty has long been a staple of Japanese… everything. Then at some point, the phenomenon hit America and Hello Kitty invaded our shores. The adorable feline exists on lunch boxes, makeup, toasters, purses, cameras as well as a million other things and now it will decorate a bullet train. Yes, the Hello Kitty Shinkansen bullet train is coming to Japan this summer. Have we reached the Hello Kitty saturation point yet? Not very likely.

This train will operate on the Sanyo Shinkansen line from the Shin-Osaka Station in Osaka to Hakata Station in Fukuoka. The outside of the train will feature a pink and white color scheme, naturally and Hello Kitty’s bow and ribbon will be a part of the design. On the inside, the second carriage of the train will have an interior inspired by Hello Kitty’s world.

Apparently, one carriage will be selling local items and foods to boost the local economy. But why not travel further, sell Hello Kitty items and bring even more money back home? I’m surprised it doesn’t have a conductor dressed as Hello Kitty on board too.

If you are in the area, you’ll soon be able to see this pink blur nearby.

Hello Kitty Car Tires are Perfect for Jaguars

Posted on by

So you’ve got a fancy sports car named after a cat. You can’t exactly go driving around with plain old black rubber wrapped around your rims, can you? What you need are some of these pink-accented Hello Kitty tires.

The tires were created as part of an odd team-up between NEXEN Tire and Sanrio. They feature pink sidewall details with kitty whisker and hair bow artwork – just what every high performance sports car needs. I wonder why they didn’t go with entirely pink tires though. I guess anyone who puts these on their car will already have the car itself painted hot pink.

The company also showed off tires based on another lesser known Sanrio character, Cinnamoroll, but I think they’d be way better if the tires looked like giant cinnamon rolls.

Super Mario Maker Gets the Hello Kitty Treatment

Posted on by

Super Mario Maker is one of the hottest games ever on the Wii U game console. It has sold like 3.5 million copies because it lets you design fun custom Super Mario levels to relive those old school gaming memories. One of the cooler things about the game is that there are a few costumes that allow you to play the game as different characters.

Two new costumes land today for the Super Mario Maker – Hello Kitty and My Melody. The costumes will be available on a new Event Course today in the US (May 26) and tomorrow (May 27) in Europe and Japan.

I’ve never really understood Hello Kitty or its appeal. I’ve also found it strange that Hello Kitty appears on some very adult items like lingerie and toilet seats as well as clothing and toys for kids.

Hello Kitty Call of Duty Rifle: Killo Kitty

Posted on by

Hello Kitty is on all the things. I’ve seen the kitty on toilet seats, fire extinguishers, contact lenses, sex toys, Darth Vader, and just about everything in between. Now we have a Hello Kitty rifle – or at least a digital facsimile.

hello_kitty_halo_rifle_1zoom in

Digital artist Reno Levi works at Infinity Ward. You know, the company that makes Call of Duty. He has worked on the CoD franchise and on games like Halo Anniversary and Hawken as well. On his ArtStation page, Levi has posted all sorts of digital renderings that look like they are ready to be placed into a high-end video game or action flick.

hello_kitty_halo_rifle_2zoom in

One of the coolest things he has is a skin for what appears to be a CoD weapon that is pink, white, and purple with Hello Kitty on the side. The only thing that might suck worse than getting fragged in a match is getting fragged by a guy wielding a pink weapon. This needs to be made into DLC for the next CoD game.
