The second of two "second chance" figures from Revoltech was their Stitch from Lilo & Stitch, a straight up reissue this time.
Now I have watched the animated movie and while it was cute, it wasn't my favourite of the hand animated films - that honour belongs to Aladdin. Having said that, it had its moments, especially when it was revealed that Stitch was effectively an escaped Alien that was being hunted by Galactic Bounty Hunters and the Government.
The Revoltech figure gives you parts to effectively recreate his two main forms, along with a pair of sunglasses and ice cream cone for when he's chilling out. The figure itself is very true to form - it really looks like the cartoon form was dragged out of the film and given life. You also get an extra faceplate to recreate his pissed off look.
So articulation is, well it's hard to explain. Stitch isn't twerking, lets start with that. The articulation on the body is the one waist swivel, shoulder joints, hip swivels, and the neck. The rest of the articulation was implement to effectively allow the bulk to move out of the way. The extra arms feature an elbow, with both sets of arms featuring a swivel for the wrists. The jaw opens and the ears can be manipulated. The neck is actually jointed such that in addition to decent standing articulation, the head can be tilted back such that poses where Stitch is crawling along the ground can be recreated. Two points of articulation are provided for each antenna and the fins along the back feature one point.
Paint Application wise, again, generally clean with excellent colour choices. But alas, as always, you really don't need to work that hard to find errors. , mostly in the form of uncrisp divisions between colours on the body., and even then it seems to be mostl isolated to body and its multiple blue sections.
Build Quality the joints are certainly better quality than with Jesse. Parts finishes are typical Revoltech, so some rough edges here and there but nothing that would render the toy useless. No issues with any limb length discrepancies.
