Stitch is dressing up again, and this time he isn't alone. The new wave of the "Stitch in Costume" series puts Stitch in the shoes of the Mad Hatter, Hades and Scar, and finally gives Angel her first costumes, as Alice and as Ursula. Look closely at what Stitch is holding: Scrump, Lilo's doll, has snuck into two of the boxes.
Lilo's doll plays the extra
On Stitch as Mad Hatter (#1836), Scrump pops out of a teapot. In Alice in Wonderland, that's the Dormouse's spot, the guest who sleeps in the teapot through the whole tea party. The green hat still carries its "10/6" tag, the price the Hatter never got around to removing.
On Stitch as Scar (#1839), Stitch wears the black mane and holds Scrump in his claws. It's hard not to see the mouse from the opening scene of The Lion King, the one Scar toys with before his "Life's not fair, is it?" Disney's ugliest doll stands in for a mouse, and it suits her perfectly.
Angel finally in costume
The series started in May 2024 with five costumed Stitches: Beast, the Cheshire Cat, Simba, Pongo and Gus Gus. Angel didn't get one. She makes up for it with two opposite roles. Angel as Alice (#1837) wears the blonde wig, the bow and the white apron. Angel as Ursula (#1840) switches to the white hair and black tentacles, with the same little pout as the sea witch. It's her villain side, and it suits her even better.
Stitch as Hades (#1838) rounds out the villain trio with the god of the Underworld's blue flame hair.
Why Stitch keeps dressing up
The idea comes from the movie itself. In 2002, Lilo spends her time dressing Stitch up, notably as Elvis, to turn him into a model citizen. Funko already made Stitch as Elvis (#127) back in 2014. The series simply carries on Lilo's game.
And Funko has every reason to keep going. The live-action Lilo & Stitch became the first Hollywood film of 2025 to cross the billion mark at the box office. Disney confirmed a sequel on June 26, 2025, the fans' "626 Day," and gave it a date last March: May 26, 2028. The license already counts more than 110 entries in the catalog.
Our take: the Queen of Hearts is missing
My favorite is the Mad Hatter, no hesitation. The Dormouse in the teapot is exactly the detail that turns a costume into a nod. Angel as Ursula comes right behind, because Angel finally gets to be something other than Stitch's girlfriend.
Hades leaves me colder. A flame wig and a black robe, no accessory and no hidden Scrump: it's the only one of the five that settles for the costume.
One piece is missing to finish the picture. With the 2024 Cheshire Cat, the Hatter and Alice, Wonderland is almost complete. All that's left is the Queen of Hearts, and we already know who should play her: Angel proved with Ursula that she makes a perfect villain.
All five figures are up for pre-order, with release announced for January 2027.
