Are you a good Stitch?
Aug. 5th, 2009 03:15 pm
These are a couple more items from the Japanese Disney Store's Good Stitch/Bad Stitch promotion from a couple years back. It's like a fold up comb and a little bag. Geez, we now wish we'd bought every single item. Because, awesomeness.

Look, you open up the bag, and it's lined with even more good Stitches and bad Stitches!
We got a Bad Stitch tee shirt from this same series a couple months back, which led to an intense debate with our spouse. Upon showing him our new apparel, Mr. Tikistitch opined, "That's a good shirt for you. Because you're a bad Stitch."
To which we rejoindered, "No, YOU'RE the bad Stitch!"
"No, you're the bad Stitch!" imparted our husband.
"No," we assured him, "You're the bad Stitch!"
Which conversation continued for some time, as it will when you have such high level discussions wherein two parties have doctoral degrees.
Which means, of course, it's pollin' time!!!!

My Little Wheelie Bag
Aug. 3rd, 2009 01:52 pm
So, we've been on a crusade of late to try and get pretty much everything that's being marketed in association with the Stitch! anime. T'aint easy. We were pleased to pick up this cute little rolly bag.

You can see it's got Stitchies on the sides too.

Of course, then we opened the tag, and discovered there's even more stuffs in the series to collect. Ah, crud....
The other annoying thing about this piece: we usually loves us some Stitchie bags, because then we can throw other Stitchie stuffs inside, and get all recursive and stuff. This one, however, in order to open it, you need to cut through the tag. Which, we cannot do. Oh, OCD, you are a cruel mistress!
Also, we got kind of enamored of the idea of actually wheeling this little character into work or something. But, given that it's scaled for a Hobbit-sized person (ie, a KID), we'd probably have to hunch over in a ridiculous manner in order to wheel it around. But, we can dream....
Stuff 'n things
Jul. 20th, 2009 04:17 pmYet another set o' stuff that's been lingering in the living room too long....

This one is a collaboration between Disney and Sanrio, so expect appalling cuteness.
( Hello Stitchie )

Aloha Ohana!
Jul. 20th, 2009 03:05 pmSo, today's theme is stuff that comes in sets! (Though, the actual theme is really, getting all that crap out of the living room!) Anyways...

This set o' stuff was evidently available at a Japanese convenience store chain (Family Mart, if we remember our auction descriptions correctly). Not quite clear how this works, as we've never had a genuine Japanese person 'splain it all to us, but these appear to be some kind of premiums only available at a particular store.

Drinking alone
Jun. 5th, 2009 10:28 amDespite appearances to the contrary, we do try to practice a bit of selectivity in our Stitch acquisition frenzy.

This item hit more than one of our collecting themes, particularly in that it is an otherwise handy household item that is shaped like Stitch.
Also, it's kind of fucked up.
( Oh, the weird )

My Little Subaru

So, the deal is, if you're in Japan, and you decide to go in and test drive a new Subaru, you get Stitch stuff!!!
(Before you rush out and bug your local purveyor of pre-owned vehicles, you read the deal about first being in Japan, right? OK.)

This is, actually, a kite. Of Stitch. Dressed up as a cow. For Subaru.
(We said, this was from Japan, correct?)

Here's another item, a Subaru Stitch mousepad. No, Stitch is not dressed as a cow here. Sorry, we dunno.
Can't eat!!
Dec. 3rd, 2008 03:22 pmThis was the subject of much squealiness within the Tokyo Disney store we visited:

These are little teensy "Decoration kits." Not sure exactly how they're used since the contents are seemingly rubber (ie, not terribly yummy). Maybe you stick them on your cupcake and then reuse them. Anyways, danged awful cute.

Lunch a la Stitch!

When we spotted this set in TRU in Japan, we initially grabbed it because it's so danged cute. But then we looked closer at the tag.
( It's bento time! )
Got a boo boo?

We're pretty sure this is one of those dealies that you can push a button and it'll turn into a little heat pad.

Or at least glow mysteriously. As we see here. Dr. Jumba would be pleased.
The best part? Note on the front, it's listed as a "decorative item." 'Cause even though you've got an owie, you can still be kawaii!
