Today, Branko takes a look at several Stich models, and considers how models are displayed in LEGO Stores around the world..

Years ago (2016) I bumped across this Stitch model on LEGO Ideas and I fell in love with it. Regardless whether or not the idea would get approved by LEGO Ideas, I set about building this wonderful creature based on instructions by Tyler Clites (who went on to win US LEGO Masters season 1 with Amy Clites in 2020).

This year, LEGO suddenly released its own design of a larger Stitch model,43249, (affiliate link), which I obviously bought as soon as I could.

In relation to this new Stitch set, I made two observations how LEGO sets are displayed in store: this varies a lot per store and per country, and I like getting a bit of inspiration beyond ‘what’s in the box’.
