When PEZ International released its product and sales catalog for this year back in January, European PEZ collectors were treated to an impressive lineup of new releases. Among the many surprises was the return of the XXL dispensers to the European marks, known in the United States as “Giants.” For many of us, this was a true highlight of the new catalog.
Now the large Stitch dispenser, which debuted in the U.S. at the end of last year, is finally being offered to European fans as well. (here)
And what a perfect character choice! Stitch has long been a fan favorite across generations.
Unboxing the Giant Stitch PEZ European Release
Since Disney’s Lilo & Stitch first appeared, the mischievous yet lovable blue alien has captured hearts worldwide. His playful personality, expressive design, and continued popularity in the Disney universe make him an ideal character for an oversized PEZ dispenser. In XXL format, Stitch’s distinctive features, especially those big ears and that cheeky grin, really stand out and make a strong visual impact.
The only differences compared to the American version are the expected ones, the name (Giants in the U.S., XXL in Europe), the packaging design, and naturally the quantity and variety of included PEZ candies. As always, these regional variations add an extra layer of interest for dedicated collectors who appreciate such details.
The XXL Stitch dispenser is available now for European collectors and also makes a fantastic gift. For those in the U.S. who may have missed out on the initial release, it is still available through the official PEZ Candy online shop. There’s no doubt about it, the large Stitch dispenser is an absolute eye-catcher in any collection.
Happy Collecting!
