Sanrio characters dress up as Myaku-Myaku for Expo 2025 collab merchandise

Sanrio Expo 2025 goods

Sanrio has unveiled a second offering for their line of officially licensed merchandise for 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo.

This unique collaboration celebrating the Expo features fan-favorite Sanrio characters, including Hello Kitty, Kuromi and Cinnamoroll, adorably dressed in costumes inspired by Myaku-Myaku, the Expo’s slightly odd official mascot.

Expo2025’s Myaku-Myaku has become a world recognised mascot with its quirky design, which is either adorable or creepy, depending on your viewpoint

Myaku-Myaku, with its unconventional design, has quickly become a recognizable symbol of Expo 2025, which is set to draw millions of visitors to Osaka.

Sanrio’s range of officially licensed collaboration goods adds a touch of cuteness to the excitement around the Expo.

Artwork created for the new range of collaboration goods has a playful theme, with the characters sailing together on a Takoyaki boat, as nod to Osaka’s famous local delicacy.
