For today’s Pop! Out of the Box, I wanted to look at one of the newest Disney exclusives that has come to Hot Topic stores here in the US… Aloha Stitch from the popular Disney animated movie Lilo & Stitch.
I have been a Stitch fan for years, and this Pop! version of Stitch is great. The details especially in this figure, down to the coconut drink and lei, are great.
This is not the first Stitch figure that we have gotten here in the US that have been Hot Topic exclusive. Previously we have had Elvis Stitch and a flocked version of the sitting Stitch. The latter flocked version might still pop up at a random Hot Topic store here and there, but Elvis has most likely left the building. Here is Aloha Stitch with a bunch of the other Lilo and Stitch Pop! Vinyls released to date.
Last year, the a few of the other Lilo and Stitch Pop! Vinyls to be released (Experiment 626, Scrump, and Lilo) came with me on a photo shoot of Walt Disney World, of which you can check out the fun here.
Looking to add Aloha Stitch to your Pop! Vinyl collection? Here in the US, you can swing by your local Hot Topic store or order online at HotTopic.com. Outside of the US, shops like Popcultcha in Australia and Forbidden Planet has him up for order (the latter even currently on sale).
Is Aloha Stitch part of your Pop! collection? What do you think of the figure? Let us know in the comments below.
