For today’s review, I take a look at the Hot Topic Exclusive Lilo & Stitch Funko Box. Released late last year, this is part of the Disney Treasures line of boxes. This line, once a subscription service directly through Funko, now has a home at Hot Topic. This is the third release since the line arrived to the retailer, following Under the Sea and Disney Villains. As the theme of this box suggests, it is themed after the Lilo & Stitch movies and cartoons. Let’s check it out.
The Pop! in this box is pretty awesome, and one that I will be certainly taking with me down to Walt Disney World next month for some photos in the parks. Here is Tiki Stitch… who is scented like a pineapple!
This Pop! totally reminds me of my favorite snack/ dessert at the Disney Parks… the Dole Whip!
My Tiki Stitch Pop! immediately found a home with my Marvel/Star Wars/Disney Parks Tiki Mug collection in my kitchen.
Next in the box is a SuperCute Plushie of Angel, Experiment 624 and Stitch’s love interest. She was introduced in the Lilo & Stitch TV Series. She has become a fan favorite of the franchise, being featured on more and more merchandise over the years.
Next up is a Pocket Pop! Keychain of Stitch as Experiment 626. He is happily wielding his blasters.
Stitch 626 decided to scout out a location in the apartment to keep a lookout, much to the dismay of Sharkhead Maui.
Finally in the box was a Mini of Superhero Stitch, included in a tin (something I felt was missing from the Disney Villains box.
I love how Stitch looks in this pose, reflective of the laundry basket scene from the original movie.
Overall, this was a home run from Funko and Hot Topic, especially for fans of Stitch and the Lilo & Stitch franchise. Stitch is one of most favorite Disney characters, and I could not have been more happy with what was in this box.
A Dumbo themed box is releasing soon at Hot Topic, and I am looking forward to it. Excited to see what will be included.
