Lilo & Stitch

---

February 2002 - On June 21st, Disney will release its heartwarming family comedy, LILO & STITCH. Hasbro, Inc. will bring the movie characters off the screen and into the hands of kids everywhere with a wide array of cool new toys from this highly anticipated animated film.

Combining whimsical, unforgettable characters, an imaginative and offbeat story and colorful artistry, this delightful new animated comedy tells a captivating tale of a young girl's close encounter with the galaxy's most wanted extraterrestrial. LILO is a lonely Hawaiian girl who adopts a small ugly 'dog,' whom she names STITCH. STITCH would be the perfect pet if he weren't in reality a genetic experiment who has escaped from an alien planet and crash-landed on Earth. Through her love, faith and unwavering belief in "ohana" (the Hawaiian concept of family), LILO helps unlock STITCH'S heart and give him the one thing he was never designed to have - the ability to care for someone else. With its lush tropical setting, unique sense of humor, and classic songs by Elvis Presley, LILO & STITCH promises to capture imaginations everywhere. Directed by Chris Sanders & Dean DeBlois.

Hasbro's product line based on LILO & STITCH includes:
