HOLY CHOOTA! 😲😱

For the first time in years, we Westerners are finally getting more experiment merch beyond Stitch, Angel, and to a lesser extent, Leroy and Reuben!

Previews World says that these bag clips, which are the fifth series in Monogram's Lilo & Stitch ("Disney Stitch") 3D foam bag clip collection, will release in stores on June 28, 2023. Just in time for Stitch Week on the eve of Leroy Day!

While there are still yet more Stitch variants, there are only three of him this time; one of him holding a lot of food, one of him in his Experiment 626 form and red spacesuit, and one of him picking his nose with his tongue.

But clearly, the real stars here are his cousins! X-629/Leroy, X-625/Reuben, X-624/Angel (who has been in a couple previous series), X-258/Sample, X-254/Mr. Stenchy, and X-010/Felix can also be found in many of these bags. X-601/Kixx and X-221/Sparky are also found as chasers, so they will be harder to find compared to the others. Yeah, it's a bit unfortunate that these are in blind bags, but at least it's something as we enter the twentieth anniversary of Lilo & Stitch: The Series later this year!

You can preorder six bags in the link at the top, preorder just one over here, or splurge on a whole display case of twenty-four bags over here.

NEED! But Hot Topic doesn’t have them in stock. I’m excited, though! I hope I see them soon.

The only thing I wonder is why the Shitennou have such boring poses and blank expressions? The girls in the series have so much personality!

Okay, so lots of us have little spring-loaded clips to hold bags closed, and they come in a bunch of different styles and shapes and are basically in every grocery, right? Half of the ones in the cabinet came from college and we probably picked them up in shared housing when roommates moved out.

This one is from 1991 and has patent numbers. I noticed because it broke and I whipped up a new one real quick in TinkerCAD and 3D-printed a replacement partly because I could and partly because the spring and grippy bits (both removed in the photos) were in fine shape.

Guardsman Products, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan was founded in 1963, and seem to be gone, though there were enough reorganisations and re-foundings to be unsure about whether it was 1993, 1995, or 1998. They appear to have several different type of clip products including Chip Clip, such as Cereal Clip, in case you weren't aware you could use the same clip for more than just chips.

The first patent (ending in 791) was applied for by Francis R. Groth on May 26th, 1981. The idea that this idea had an associated patent just kind of astounds me. It builds upon the lower patent (ending in 600), an earlier patent from 1980, which includes an image which looks a lot like a clothespin with two chopsticks attached. Both are long expired, but still assigned to Guardsman Products.

It's a little weird to me that something that strikes me as this obvious was novel enough to earn not one but two patents, but... looks like it was. Everything starts somewhere, I guess, and in 1980, the whole idea was apparently pretty darned new.

They are finally together!

I got the Roman back in February or early March, and it’s taken ages to find a Victor. But today, they are reunited.
