Hello Kitty (Liberty, apple tree) is a licensed Beanie Buddy built around Sanrio's Hello Kitty character, sold exclusively through Liberty in London.
The apple tree print came in four sizes across Ty's lines: a Beanie Baby, a Beanie Baby key-clip, this standard Beanie Buddy, and an extra-large Beanie Buddy.
Hello Kitty herself is a Sanrio character created by Yuko Shimizu, first sold in Japan in 1975.
