Hello Kitty Karaoke …now you can see yourself sing in HD!

admin — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 19:58:23 +0000

Based on the outstanding reception at CES we have now started tooling on the new HELLO KITTY KT2007 karaoke. This unit is not only beautiful, but is designed to plug into your TV so you can see yourself sing in HD, see the words, or see the words as well as yourself. The speakers on your TV, of course, are far superior to anything we can put in a small unit, so you also enjoy the upgraded sound of your voice as you prepare for your American Idol debut.

Hello Kitty CDG Karaoke System with Built-in Video Camera - KT2007

This will arrive at TRU and other great retailers in time for the Holiday season 2012.

Off to Minneapolis (burrr!) and LA (Hello Sun) this week and will write again when I get back.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Looks like both Target and Costco have sold all the items we sent to them for this holiday season.

Thanks to everyone for your wonderful support this year. We are introducing 15 new products next month at the CES in Las Vegas. Hope there is something in that mix you will like for holiday 2012.

Merry Christmas and Season’s Greetings to all.

SOMETIMES IT PAYS TO WAIT

If you have been in Target during the last 10 days I am sure you have seen the very cool looking Hello Kitty end cap on the main aisle. Your choice of 8 of our best products for $19.99.

However, there is an ad the third week of December and those items will be on sale for $14.99. This is an unbelievable deal, so don’t miss it if you are a Hello Kitty fan.

Also, the new cupcake maker is selling much better than projected, so if you want that item I would suggest you get it the first day of the ad. And yes, the cupcakes do come out with Hello Kitty’s face on the top.

Happy shopping,

Marino

SHOPPING FOR OUR BEST SELLERS:

‘Tis the season and here are some pointers to get the best deals on our products.

TRU has our Hello Kitty boom box for $29.99. Better hurry as they may not have enough to get through Christmas.

Costco still has both the Paul Frank and Hello Kitty water dispensers and projection clock radios. I spoke to Costco yesterday and they confirmed they would run out before Christmas. I can tell you for sure the prices at Costco will never be seen again. Take advantage while you can.

Next week the annual Target end cap goes up with 8 of our best items, however, wait until the second week of December and look for the ad on Sunday. All the items will be on sale for $14.99, some actually below what Target paid us. Unbelievable.

Happy Shopping!

JUST BACK FROM CHINA

admin — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 17:38:39 +0000

Just back from 2 weeks in Hong Kong working on next year’s new products. Think we have a great idea for a Hello Kitty karaoke with a camera which will let you see yourself sing on your TV and even show you the lyrics.

Also, we will introduce a professional hair blower and straightener next year. Since Hello Kitty is the ultimate lifestyle brand for girls and women all over the world I am convinced that those girls and women want high quality products that make them smile each day and I am working on expanding our offerings in that direction.

Finally, the iPad mini messenger bags will arrive the 2nd week of November this year. Not sure even where they will be at retail, but I can say they look great and they will be the ultimate fashion statement for Hello Kitty fans everywhere.

Flying Cathay Pacific—great airline. Everyone should have at least one flight on this airline in their lifetime.

Right now in the British Airways Lounge at JFK. Beautiful!

Working on Hello Kitty professional hair dryers and flat irons for 2012.

Definitely on a high quality kick these days.

Back next Tuesday—hope you all have a great week!

America the Beautiful

admin — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 18:00:21 +0000

As I watched all the 9/11 events this weekend I realized as all the names were being read, many of the people who lost their life that fateful day were from either another country or a first generation American.

This is why America is the greatest nation on earth: we are the one country a person from anywhere else can come and try to live the American Dream.

Here at Sparklebee we have the advantage of designing products for Hello Kitty who was first introduced in Japan 39 years ago and Paul Frank who created Julius the famous monkey in Huntington Beach, California in 1995.

As an American company, we are able to bring smiles to our fans from near and far.

God Bless America.
