The SKULLPANDA × My Melody collaboration represents a limited-edition collectible release that brings together two globally recognized character brands under the POP MART umbrella. This launch also includes a companion item, the 'SKULLPANDA × Kuromi Plush Pendant,' with both products presented in blister-pack format and designed to function as collectible objects as well as decorative accessories suitable for attachment to bags or keys, or for display within a collection.
Scheduled for release on December 29, 2025, the pendants will be available through online channels and physical retail locations at a suggested retail price of $59.99 each. The collaboration combines SKULLPANDA’s distinctive, darker visual language with the established charm of Sanrio® characters, resulting in designs that balance contrasting aesthetic sensibilities. Collectors may choose between a softer, nostalgic presentation and a more visually bold interpretation, reflecting different stylistic preferences.
Overall, the release underscores the continued convergence of character design, fashion-adjacent accessories, and collectible culture within limited-edition collaborations.
