The Hello Kitty Plane

You would not believe the amount of Hello Kitty crap the Minx is going to get in her stocking (or if you’re in possession of a five year old girl maybe you would).

I do have to question the business logic behind this Taiwanese Eva Airways Hello Kitty plane though – is your average business class passenger really in Hello Kitty’s target market?

Please don’t show this post to the Minx, she will be demanding we go on holiday to Taiwan.

Fortunately too big for the Minx’s stocking

You’d think they could do a Hello Kitty butter pat too.

I’m sure Mr Taiwanese Businessman is THRILLED

Actually I do think most of the branding stuff here is rather lame. But the Minx would have exploded with excitement at this point.

    My two-year-old son recognizes Hello Kitty but calls her “Hello Cat.” Maybe he feels he doesn’t know her well enough yet for such familiarity.

    K, that is too funny. Hello Cat seem so prosaic. The name is a work of branding genius.
    Liz, we can send them off there together. Though I have to admit I much prefer HK to the horrific princesses…

    A friend of mine who runs a bar in HK (& grown Hong Konger’s will be over the moon with excitement at going on a Hello Kitty plane to Taiwan) once ran a Goodbye Kitty evening.
    Punters got a Hello Kitty item, a hammer and a coffin to put the pieces in…….

    OMG. I had no idea the hello kitty fad was so big. I remember hello kitty when I was a kid and fortunately the relaunch happened just after my daughter moved to adolescence so we’ve avoided it mostly. She thinks its cute, but not to obsessive levels! Funny post. Im here from the Carnival, nice to ‘meet’ you!

    I am 30 and obsessed with Hello Kitty and yes there is a market for Hello Kitty in the adult age range. More of the limited edition and numbered collectibles for the serious collectors which is usually adults. There is wine now of course too. Asia has a different attitude towards cutsie and that is the way of life for Japan.
