For several years, on June 26 (6/26), Disney has celebrated Stitch, originally dubbed “Experiment 626!” 626 Day can occasionally mean limited-time food or Parks offerings, but the focus has always been new Stitch merchandise. Join me as we celebrate the cute and fluffy extraterrestrial with merchandise from Disney, BoxLunch, and Ravensburger!
626 Day Stitch Merchandise at Disney Parks and the Disney Store
Let’s kick off the festivities by looking at what’s available at Disney Parks. We took these photos at Disneyland, but you’ll also find them at Walt Disney World. Some of these items are also sold online at DisneyStore.com.
The black sequins on this Loungefly mini backpack sparkle like stars, while the vegan leather hibiscus flowers pay homage to Stitch’s new Hawaiian home.
Planets, tropical flowers, and tidal swirls join Stitch and Scrump as embroidered art on this fanny pack. The “Stitch 626” patch on the side is a not-so-subtle reminder of the theme of the accessory.
“626” is also on the breast of this long-sleeve shirt, along with the same planets, flowers, and swirls seen on the fanny pack.
The emphasis on flowers gives this pullover hoodie a more summery feel.
You can top off any outfit with this Stitch-themed bucket hat.
Snuggle up for the night (or an afternoon nap) with this plush of Stitch in his PJs, holding Scrump. His left foot has a patch that reads “626 Day 2024.”
And to enjoy some Stitch-inspired fun throughout the year, collect this year’s monthly merchandise collection, Stitch Attacks Snacks. Stitch digs into a fan-favorite snack every month as a plush and pin set. Since April, Angel has also joined the mix in plush form.
Keep up to date with each release in our guide:
September’s Stitch Attacks Snacks Merchandise is the Apple of Our Eye
Stitch Merchandise from BoxLunch
BoxLunch has a whole section with Stitch merchandise that is perfect for 626 Day. Many of the included items are exclusively sold at BoxLunch.
*BoxLunch Exclusive!* This pair of hoodies by Her Universe, made to match either Lilo’s or Stitch‘s color scheme, are perfect for buddy trips to Disney Parks or the beach. The “Stitch” style is made from a knitted fabric, while the “Lilo” is a cotton/polyester blend.
*BoxLunch Exclusive!* Also from Her Universe is this Stich and Duckling plush backpack and the matching plush figural wallet. Isn’t the little duckling sitting on top of the backpack positively precious? Both the backpack and the wallet share the same lining.
Lean into that summer vibe with this Lilo & Stitch S’mores enamel pin blind box from Loungefly. Each box contains one randomly selected pin from the set of six. The frog chase pin has a s’mores scent added to it!
Stitch shares a hammock with Scrump under a starry night on this detailed Loungefly crossbody bag. My favorite parts are the palm trees that “grow” up the base of the straps and the frog hiding on the back.
Celebrate 626 Day with Ravensburger
While we usually focus on trading cards or board games when we feature Ravensburger, the company is also known for its wide variety of high-quality puzzles. And their Stitch-themed puzzles are no exception. Here are a few of our favorites.
For a 100-piece puzzle, this one is certainly “XXL!” It measures 19.29 inches by 14.17 inches and is full of colorful images of Stitch in various poses and costumes.
This 500-piece puzzle thinks outside the box… err, square, and is instead made in a circular shape. The sketch-style art used depicts Stitch cuddling with Angel in a down-right lovey-dovey scene.
While consisting of only 72 pieces, the 3D nature of this puzzle presents a different sort of challenge.
