Action!Stitch - your input is needed!

[tikistitch]

So, here at Tikistitch Labs LLC, our intention is not just to waste time, our mission is to waste your time as well!!!!

Thus, we have just come into possession of numerous weird Japanese Action!Stitch toys. Your job, if you wish to accept it, is to tell us which toy needs to be subjected to our next highly scientific round of testing!

First we have....



Mouse Rider Stitchies! Mr. tiki thinks they're all riding on Pikachu monsters, but he's just silly, because why would you ride a Pokemon when you could climb on board a giant mouse with wheels on the bottom. Selling point: the TRY ME button coyly peeking out on the mouse's footie. Oh, Japan, you know how to bring out our Inner Alice!

And segundo.....



Mini Talking Stitchies!



According to the Hobby Link Japan web site (which is NEVER wrong), they say "Aloha!" And, they're kawaii.

So what will it be, loyal readers? YouTube fame awaits the winnah!

Ha ha! I'm kidding, of course I will watch any videos you post. I love my vicarious Stitchie-collecting life. But I can't hear sound in videos at work, so I vote for Mouse-ridin' Stichies.

Tiki ... did you know the mini kawaii ones look like someone has washed them & then tossed them in the dryer?

Ok, this may sound like it's coming from a total experiment fangirl (mostly because it is), but I really want to hear Angel say 'Aloha!' because canonically the only word not in Tantalog she has ever said is 'Love?'. :P

I did not know that! That's definitely a reason to have her say Aloha.

According to the packaging, she says a few things, but I don't see "Aloha" as one of them.

There's "aai?" and "i!" and one I can't quite make out (closer pic needed!), but it starts with "miiga te", which I thought was interesting (the first word is Stitchese for "me", which we write as "meega"). Perhaps the pseudo-English alienspeak was left untouched in the Japanese dubs.

The three speech bubbles on the Stitch package say "aroha" (aloha), "ohana" and "boku no namae Sutitcchi" (My name Stitch).

According to hlj, she says "Meega-tay-booji-boo" (Stitch language for "I love you"), "I!" and "A-i??" So, I guess she just talks in alien babble.

I think I've told you I've seen the Russian dub of L&S, In it, they use Chris's voice for the alien babble. But when Stitch speaks English, they dub into Russian. The voice actor, amusingly, has a voice about an octave deeper than Chris's.

Yeah, my first impulse was that it read "miiga te bujibu" but the blurs in the photo made the first two characters of "bujibu" look like they might be something else. Looks like the first impulse was correct.

The Russian dubs must sound freaky like that.

I heard EuroStitch last night -- searching for new Stitch videos on YouTube in hopes of finding one from TAF08 (found one channel that had videos from practically every booth at TAF08 except the Stitch booth, and one video where you could see someone carrying the bag from the Stitch booth...), I found one of glowing 3D animatronic Stitch at EuroDisney. "Je m'appelle Stitch!"

WHERE DID YOU SEE THE EURO STITCHIE????

I've heard they're preparing that "ride." Or "experience," or whatever the heck they're calling it.
