Google is teaming up with Sanrio to release special Hangyodon merchandise for the release of the new Google Pixel 8 Mint phone. There will only be a limited supply of the phone, as well as the Hangyodon case and strap.
The mint version of the Google Pixel 8 will be a new color that you can get. Even if you don’t get this particular model, you’ll be able to access the Google Store to download free wallpapers of Hangyodon. This does not look like it’s available outside of Japan though.
For those who purchase the Google Pixel 8 Mint from Google Stores in Japan during the campaign, you’ll be able to get a Hangyodon case and strap. This campaign will end on March 31, 2024.
Hangyodon is a Sanrio mascot that debuted in 1985. He is a fish-like creature from China who wants to be a hero and has a soft spot. Sanrio also made him into a Fragaria in its multimedia franchise Fragaria Memories. His name is Hangyon and he has something like Kingyochan on his shoulder. Other merchandise that you can get of Hangyodon from the Sanrio website includes a plush, a blanket, and socks.
There will be a limited quantity of the Google Pixel 8 Mint phone and the Hangyodon collaboration with it will end on March 31, 2024.
