Another cosplay Stitchie. Can you guess who he is this time? We'll give ya a hint: no, it's not another Stitchie bee.

( Suprize! )

We had picked up one or two of these guys before and just thought, "Huh, gangster Stitch" until somebody clever (probably twotone, as she's awfully clever) was like, "OMG LUPIN STITCH DOOD!" In case you aren't familiar with anime's most charming con man, here's the inevitable Wiki page (hey, we didn't know there was a musical).

What's Ponkikki?



(Aren't you sorry you asked?)

Watch out when these guys yawn is all we can say.



They've even done the whiskers.

And, no, they're not licensed by Ghibli, though they've definitely got official Dizzney markings.

That they have something to do with SMAP.

You have been chosen.

(We thinkee they is supposed to go with these guys.)

They are wearing Bistro SMAP uniforms.



Ya, RLY.

Stitch and the crew get their Tare Panda on.

We haven't felt like buying a dollie in a long, long time, but this "Hello Kitty devours a Pullip" is just kind of awesome.

So, we dunno about you, but when we see wings and fangs and stuff, we go, "O kewl vampire bats!!!" And, these are pretty kewl plushies, 'cause the wings even kinda pose (though we're not quite sure why that one guy is holding an apple, but oh well). But, it says on their footies, "Devil Stitch." So, maybe they're supposed to be not bats at all but this guy? (Yeah, it's a crummy picture, but it's ours.) Except, where's the tight leather pants? 'Tis a puzzlement.

UPDATE: Hold on a sec her kiddies, is the apple actually a Deathnote reference?



Ryuk + apple???

As y'all know, Studio Ghibli has a deal in the USA to release their insanely good anime through Disney.

But, we didn't expect this:



Yes, it's a licensed Disney product.

But, those grins--don't these guys look a little....familiar?

( Tonari no Stitch )

Are these supposed to be Super Mario chara? Or maybe magic mushrooms?

( Shrooms )

Look what Mr. Tikistitch found for us today!

( Monsters! )

Hasbro's newest Star Wars action figure--Stitch!

Yes, really.

The Dizzney panel at Celebration IV was absolutely packed--even the very nice presenters (who'd evidently flown all the way from Mouse Home Base in Florida) were a bit taken aback by the enthusiasm present at a con where people run around dressed as Wookiees. Anyways, they presented concepts for some upcoming Star Wars/Dizzney crossover figures, such as yet more successors to the popular Darth Spud (including a Boba Fett) all named with terrible puns.

( Love and death at the Dizzney panel )

Our plushies wanna make you an offer you can't refuse.

( wise guys )

Another Kuromi Stitch--but is Angel supposed to be My Melody?

We like the Scrump picture in place of Kuromi's skull.

Across the Universe - Looks like the mutant stepchild of the Sgt. Pepper movie and Hair, and as such, has the potential to be the worst movie in the entire universe evar.

Via Steve Simels, though we think he was too horrified to actually put it on his blog.

New glasses = we can see minis again yay!

OK, so, this is Kishidan (氣志團):



And, this is Stitch as Kishidan:



( Snap, crackle, J-pop )
