This Funko POP! figurine (No. 165) depicts Hello Kitty in a design specially created for Valentine’s Day. Officially named ‘Valentine Heart Outfit’ by Funko, this version dresses the Sanrio icon in a festive outfit inspired by Valentine’s Day. The figurine measures approximately 8.1 cm in height and joins the Hello Kitty and Friends collection dedicated to Sanrio characters.
The design retains Hello Kitty’s instantly recognisable features: her white face, rounded ears, whiskers and famous bow. This Valentine’s edition features a design dominated by pink, red and heart-shaped motifs, creating a look that is directly associated with the romantic and colourful world of Valentine’s Day.
The finish reflects the simplified style characteristic of POP! figures, with an oversized head and a compact body. The special outfit sets this seasonal version apart from the many classic interpretations of Hello Kitty and makes it a perfect companion to POP! No. 166 Cinnamoroll Valentine Heart Outfit from the same series.

Character background and universe (Lore)
Hello Kitty is one of Sanrio’s most iconic characters. Created in 1974, she first appeared on a small purse before gradually becoming an international icon for the brand. Sanrio has long associated the character with values of happiness, friendship and sharing.
In her official backstory, Hello Kitty was born in the suburbs of London. She lives with her parents and her twin sister Mimmy, who is also her best friend. Her favourite pastimes include baking biscuits and meeting new friends.
Hello Kitty is distinguished by a deliberately simple and instantly recognisable visual identity, which allows her to be adapted to numerous seasonal themes whilst retaining her characteristic appearance. Over the decades, she has become the central figure in a vast universe that includes, amongst others, Mimmy, Dear Daniel and many other Sanrio characters.
The Valentine Heart Outfit theme fits particularly well with the Hello Kitty universe, which is traditionally associated with friendship and sharing. Here, Funko brings these themes to life in a range dominated by hearts and Valentine’s Day colours, designed to be collected alongside the other characters in the Sanrio Valentine’s collection.
