Choose a LEGO Stitch display case for Stitch 43249 alone or a complete paired arrangement with Angel 43257. Their ears, head positions and decorations need a scene plan before the enclosure size is compared. A single-character case and a combined tropical display are different purchases.
43249 is Stitch; 43257 is Angel
LEGO’s official Stitch 43249 description identifies a turning head, movable ears, a flower that can be added or removed, and an ice-cream cone the character can hold. The descriptive height is over 20 cm. That height is not a complete width and depth for every head, ear and accessory position.
The official Angel 43257 description identifies movable ears, rear antennae, a turning head and a butterfly or three-heart decoration. Its over-25 cm height reference expressly includes the three-heart decoration. Keep that configuration attached to the figure rather than using it as a height for every possible Angel display.
One sampled seller, Resinplayer, reverses the character names and numbers in its paired title, calling Stitch 43257 and Angel 43249. Use LEGO’s correct identities in your enquiry and ask the seller to confirm the exact receiving drawing. Do not quietly correct its text and then treat the product’s compatibility as verified.
Choose one character or one complete pair
| Arrangement | Include in the measured outline | View or access question |
|---|---|---|
| Stitch alone | Chosen head and ears, retained flower and cone. | Does the accessory remain visible and clear of the panel? |
| Stitch with Angel | Both actual poses, rear antennae and selected decorations. | Do their outlines overlap or hide a face from the intended view? |
| Pair with displayed spare decorations | Separate positions and supports for any unused items. | Are those locations included in the maker’s layout? |
A pair’s width is not twice a single figure’s nominal size. Their actual relationship, turned heads and projecting accessories determine the combined outline. Make a front and side view of the arrangement you want, keeping the rear antennae in the record even if they disappear from the front photograph.
Follow the actual model instructions when choosing poses or changing decorations. A case panel should not hold an ear down, force a cone inward or become a prop for a separate decorative piece. Keep the intended supported scene independent of the enclosure.
Compare the solo products with the paired products
These supplier descriptions were read on 18 October 2026. They are source specifications, not physical tests. A model-specific title does not establish every pose, and unlabelled size boundaries remain unresolved.
| Product | Published size | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Wicked Brick, 43249 | W32 × D18 × H23.3 cm; boundary unlabelled. | Inside dimensions for the chosen Stitch pose. |
| Flying Box, 43249 | Case L11.5 × W6 × H8.2 in; base 12 × 6.5 in. Case boundary unlabelled. | Actual cavity and the larger complete base. |
| FantasMall, 43249 | L30 × W20 × H25 cm; labelled internal in the main/Q&A. | Usable interior above the actual current base. |
| Brick In It, 43249 and 43257 | W40 × D20 × H30 cm; boundary unlabelled. | Exact side-by-side pose, decorations and clear interior. |
| Resinplayer, paired title with reversed identities | L56 × W20 × H28 cm; boundary unlabelled. | Correct set identities, actual layout and current opening instructions. |
Brick In It explicitly describes the pair side by side with a tropical printed background. Its combined format should remain distinct from the three sampled solo 43249 products. Do not assign the paired scene to a single-character case merely because the individual model names are familiar.
The Flying Box base is larger than the case sequence. Use the whole base for the furniture check and obtain the inside separately. Neither sheet thickness nor the smaller panel footprint supplies an exact receiving cavity.
For Resinplayer, the magnetic-front wording is in the product title. Obtain the current panel-removal instructions and correct compatibility drawing rather than inferring all construction details from that title. Percentage UV and light-transmission claims are not independent test results here.
Confirm which base and background are actually supplied
FantasMall’s description says the base has been upgraded to a thick solid-wood platform, while its materials field also lists Acrylic and PVC. Ask which construction belongs to the selected current product and where its labelled internal height starts. Do not combine every listed layer into an invented base thickness.
The same page calls the background on its background version nonremovable. Choose whether that rear appearance suits your display before ordering. Its general advice about extra outside dimensions is not an exact drawing for the selected base, and the rounded inch sequence is not a more precise second interior.
Compare the final view at normal eye height. A tropical background can frame both characters, while a clear rear can suit another viewing position. Neither choice establishes access to the backs of the heads or space to exchange decorations.
Keep a decoration change separate from static fit
Wicked Brick’s 43249 case describes lifting the clear surround from the base and returning it to grooves. Reserve a route past the ears, flower and cone, with somewhere to rest the removed part. That method belongs to this product; similar-looking paired cases need their own instructions.
Decide where an instructed cone, flower, butterfly or heart change will happen. The complete settled scene fitting behind a panel does not establish hand access or room to move those parts under the cover. Record unused decorations separately rather than letting them accumulate around the figures after the case is chosen.
Use the Stitch and Angel scene worksheet for set identities, poses, current base, receiving dimensions and access. The LEGO shelf case guide covers the finished enclosure’s placement. No case or model was physically tested for this comparison.
Common questions
Is Angel included in every Stitch case?
Choose the exact solo or paired product. A 43249-only title does not establish room for 43257 or include either model.
Does Angel always measure exactly 25 cm high?
The cited reference says over 25 cm with the three-heart decoration. Record the actual selected configuration.
