The answers below are provided by contributors and may not be fully accurate. Verify important details before relying on them.
The Hello Kitty (Swimming) Pop! Vinyl is not considered rare because it was a standard mass-produced release from the 2020 Sanrio collaboration. It was widely available in major retail stores and online platforms upon its launch. While specific regional exclusions may exist, the figure generally holds its original retail value or slightly higher in the secondary market.
This item does not exist in Funko’s official production history. Funko has never released a Hello Kitty Pop! Vinyl with the SKU 34 or a "Swimming" variant in 2020. SKU 34 corresponds to the original Star Wars Darth Vader Pop! Vinyl, which was released in 2010.
This item does not exist in Funko’s official catalog, as the Hello Kitty Pop! line does not include a "Swimming" variant with SKU 34. The number 34 corresponds to the standard Hello Kitty Pop! Vinyl, which features her classic red bow and yellow dress rather than swimwear. If your figure depicts Hello Kitty swimming, it is likely a counterfeit, a custom paint job, or a mislabeled third-party product.
The Hello Kitty (Swimming) Pop! Sanrio was released in 2020 by Funko.
This figure is no longer in print and is not available to buy new from Funko. It was part of a limited 2020 release and is now only available through secondary markets. Collectors must purchase used or pre-owned copies from resellers.
Examine the vinyl surface for cracks, stress marks, or discoloration, paying close attention to the base and limbs where stress fractures commonly occur. Inspect the painted details, such as the swimsuit and facial features, for any chipping or paint loss that indicates prior handling or damage. Check the box for dents, creases, or spine damage, as these significantly impact the collectible’s market value and grade.
