Hangyodon will visit Hands Shinjuku Store, which also marks its 30th anniversary, for advance-lottery photo shoots that are free to enter.","whyItMatters":"The tie-up runs on two anniversaries at once (Hands' 50th and the Shinjuku Store's 30th), and it puts a Sanrio character in a general merchandise retailer's stores rather than a character shop, with a visit event that requires an app membership or a purchase to enter.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe collaboration is called \u0026#34;HANDS×HANGYODON\u0026#34; and uses a visual drawn for the retailer, with products sold across Hands stores and the online store. The catalog spreads from stationery to soft goods: clear files, W-ring notebooks, square memos, bookmarks and petit stickers on one side, plush mascots, a drawstring bag, an eco bag, acrylic keyholders and hand towels on the other. The Shinjuku Store event space on the 3F floor hosts the meet-and-greet, and the source states that availability differs by store.
