Hello Kitty is something that I remember being around when I was about 4 - 5 growing up in Hong Kong. It's been a growing phenomenon for 30 odd years and even now our house is full of it because my missus and my two daughters are obsessed with all the merchandise the little white cat features on.
I've posted various bits of artwork and merchandise on here before but these illustrated Kitty variations by artist Joseph Senior are some of the cooler things I've come across on the web. Star Wars, Star Trek, Buzz Lightyear, Robocop, Wolverine and even Batman versions are present and they're all pretty cool.
Good job they're not available in Beanie form or my kids would want the whole lot!
