Soon we will have another reason to visit 7-Eleven stores.
7-Eleven announced on Facebook today that they are bringing in the Sanrio’s ‘Pentacular Collection’ at all 7-Eleven stores on 10 August.
In the video teaser, you can catch a glimpse of a few of the Tsum Tsum style toys moving cheekily with their back facing you. (Not to be confused with Disney’s Tsum Tsum characters, ‘Tsum Tsum’ means ‘Stack Stack’ in Japanese)
These are actually Sanrio characters shaped in Tsum-Tsum-style, and each character is a coloured pen/marker that you can use for drawing or writing.
There are a total of 12 characters in this release: Hello Kitty, Dear Daniel, My Melody, Gudetama, Chococat, Tuxedosam, Little Twin Stars Kiki & Lala, Kerokerokeroppi, Hangyodon, Pompompurin and a character from The Runabouts.
Each of these collectibles has its own unique colour, while the Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel version are actually magic pen that comes in a ‘invisible colour’ which will only appear when you combine it with the rest of the pens.

According to the Hong Kong’s release, customer can redeem for one of these limited edition toys when they collect 18 stickers or 7 stickers plus HK$20. (Each HK$20 spend = 1 sticker, HK$30 = 2 sticker, HK$40 = 3 sticker)
Each of these collectible is packed in a blind box which means you don’t know which specific design from a series you might be receiving.
Watch the pens in action! [Spoiler Alert]
