Article: Hello Kitty Strawberry Kawaii Collection — Sanrio x Retrospekt

Hello Kitty Strawberry Kawaii Collection — Sanrio x Retrospekt

We're thrilled to once again partner with the world’s friendliest lifestyle brand, Sanrio, to release “Strawberry Kawaii” a new collection of Hello Kitty-themed devices, including a Polaroid instant camera and our own FC-11 35MM film camera and CP-81 portable cassette player.

Smooth and sweet like a strawberry milkshake — this delectable collection is Hello Kitty at her most scrumptious. Created in partnership with Sanrio and exclusively for this new collection of retro tech products, every piece from the Strawberry Kawaii series features a clean white and pink palette with official Hello Kitty artwork bursting with flavor and including phrases such as “Hello Kitty” and “Kawaii” set in authentic Japanese hiragana characters.


Strawberry Kawaii features the Polaroid 600 Hello Kitty Strawberry Kawaii instant film camera built by Retrosepkt with refurbished photographic components from vintage Polaroid cameras released in the 1980s and ‘90s. Faithfully restored to work just like new, these original parts are housed inside newly designed and molded plastic exteriors featuring pink plastic accents, luscious red-printed external graphics and other exclusive Hello Kitty artwork. 

Additionally, the collection also features two brand new Retrospekt-created products inspired by the form and function of classic retro tech. The Retrospekt CP-81 portable cassette player brings all the essential functions of the cassette tape experience to a new generation, wrapped from headphones-to-player in strikingly sweet Hello Kitty graphics. Rounding out the collection is the FC-11 35mm camera being offered here in two different Strawberry Kawaii designs. With a fixed-focus lens and optional flash, our FC-11 is a direct result of the increasing demand for approachable, easy-to-use film photography products. Using it is as simple as lining up the shot and pressing the shutter button. 

To complement each camera we've created two unique camera bags — one to fit each camera style in the collection — each adorned with Hello Kitty artwork, patches and vibrantly-colored shoulder straps. The bags are available independently from the cameras and are flexible enough to fit similar-sized cameras and/or other small treasures.
