I know some cute Sanrio characters or look-alike characters that are not made by Sanrio. :momo

Keroppi the Frog

Pekkle the Duck

Pocchaco the Dog

Characters that are Sanrio like but not made by Sanrio

Mashi Maro

Pucca

D.D.Duck (Pekkle look-alike)

Caper Cat

Tofu Pig

Little Tiny

That's what I remember from the top of my head.

Some of the characters I listed are old skool characters I grew up with in the early 90s. :cheesecake

One of the Sanrio stores (it's closed now) sold Pucca and Mashi Maru, plus some other non-Sanrio characters. I always wondered why they carried those! Anyway, I think Pochacco, Pekkle, & Keroppi are all cute. But my faves are still My Melody, Little Twin Stars and Hello Kitty.

I love those characters too Joyce. My Melody is SOOOO cute. :love
I try to stay away from Claire's because I always want to buy the newest HK stuff they have in there and I really shouldn't be spending money on that right now. :ha

LOL, that's why I stay away from Sanrio too! I love My Melody and Chi Chai Monchan the best. I noticed they're carrying the Peanuts gang now too! :yogurt
