The Sanrio “Smile with Hello Kitty” disposable camera is a scarce wonder in the world of soon-to-be-extinct film products. You might find one at a party shop, a Hello Kitty boutique or possibly online, but once they’re gone, they will be gone forever, just like when someone dies. I imagine once supplies start dwindling, these will become hot commodities akin to Polaroids – there’s just something bizarrely voyeuristic about that cutesey vignette and classic feel. So calling all 80s babies – keep your eyes peeled for these the next time you’re rolling through Chinatown.

“My homegirl in this picture racked me this disposable Hello Kitty camera from some party store. I’ll ask her if they have em in stock regularly, because I’ve never seen them before.”

…and some more Kitty snaps can be found here.

    i apologize in advance for being obnoxious, but “kawaii” is spelled wrong

    I want this. If I find any I’ll buy them out.

    I think Kawaii is right.
