Special Giveaway: Street Fighter x Sanrio Book set
November 30, 2012 by 7 Comments
Hello everybody! Today I have a special giveaway of a set of Street Fighter x Sanrio books. Included in the giveaway are:
Street Fighter x Sanrio World View
This is a cute hardcover book that has stats from characters in Street Fighter interspersed with inspirational quotes and pictures of Sanrio characters like Hello Kitty and Badtz Maru dressed up in Street Fighter cosplay. You can also learn interesting factoids like Chun-Li’s blood type.
Street Fighter x Sanrio Sticker Book
This sticker book is a combination of stickers, tiny paper dolls, illustration pages, and general adorableness. I’m sure most Hello Kitty fans would go crazy for these stickers, and it is hard to deny the appeal of Hello Kitty dressed up as Chun-Li proclaiming “I am the strongest woman in the world!”
If you are trying to think of stocking stuffers for the manga fan who has everything, these books would be great candidates.
To win the set of books, just leave a comment here with the name of a franchise you would want to see in a Sanrio mashup next. Personally I would love to see Sanrio X-Men, just because I think a Hello Kitty Dark Phoenix would be hilarious. The giveaway will be open for one week, and is open to US residents.
Thanks to Viz for providing the books for the giveaway!
