With its new Bitty Pop takes on some of the most iconic Sanrio characters, Funko invites fans of Hello Kitty and Friends to a whole new itty-bitty level of fun. The characters now look a lot smaller compared with their Funko Pop versions. It’s almost as if someone had played a trick on them and treated them to one of those oven recipes from Hello Kitty Island Adventure that made them all shrink down to this adorable itty-bitty form.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure Getting Big New Under the Sea Update

Developer Sunblink makes a splash and releases the new Hello Kitty Island Adventure update 2.6 patch notes that is currently available to play.

It seems that Hello Kitty and her mates are now scattered around what feels like Funko’s own version of the famous SanrioTown. The good news is that fans can help Hello Kitty look for her friends and maybe even keep a few of them safe in their own collections. It might give Hello Kitty just enough time to figure out which one of the oven recipes in Hello Kitty Island Adventure can make everyone bigger again. With how charming these 0.9-inch-tall figures have turned out, though, let’s hope that Hello Kitty never finds the solution. In the meantime, it’s a good idea to watch our step while looking for these miniature manifestations of cherished Sanrio characters. Perhaps greeting them with some Hello Kitty Island Adventure gift ideas would be thoughtful as well. Among all the places where we could start our Bitty Pop expedition, Cafe Cinnamon makes for a prime destination. Taking a peek through the floating clouds of flour there, we can notice quite a few familiar faces. Let’s go inside and see if we can help them find new home in Funko’s neat acrylic display cases in fan collections.
Cafe Cinnamon Delights: Bitty Pop Hello Kitty and Friends Series 1

Cinnamoroll seems to be on a mission to find the cure to his current Bitty Pop predicament. After all, one would be hard-pressed to find a fan of Sanrio characters who wouldn’t want to get a bigger size of Cinnamoroll’s everlasting charm. Cafe Cinnamon’s mascot is the embodiment of cuteness overload and steadily holds the top of the Sanrio Character Yearly Ranking. Eventually, Cinnamoroll should come to peace with the fact that his Bitty Pop manifestation is beauty in disguise. The itty-bitty size invites his admirers to take a closer look at Cinnamoroll’s cuteness and to get more of the miniature figures depicting his loveliness for their collections. The same holds true not just for the most delicious-looking puppy in the world but also for his friends at Cafe Cinnamon. By the looks of it, the Sanrio characters enjoying tasty recipes at the cafe table include:

Unicorn Cinnamoroll

My Melody is nice enough to greet us first, looking as cute as ever in her unicorn-themed outfit.
