When Nightmare Comes


Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas is finally getting the select action figure treatment. This 1993 film follows the misadventures of Jack Skellington, Halloweentown’s beloved pumpkin king, who had become bored with the same annual routine of frightening people in the “real world”. When Jack accidentally stumbles on Christmastown, all bright colors and warm spirits, he gets a new lease on life—he plots to bring Christmas under his control by kidnapping Santa Claus and taking over the role. But Jack soon discovers even the best-laid plans of mice and skeleton men can go seriously awry.

From Diamond Select Toys, their elegant Pumpkin King figurine buries any competition for the honor of being the “most frighteningly fabulous collectible doll of all.” The Sally figure looks fantastic and comes with her very own coffin as well (limited to 1994 pieces). Leave Jack on view in his satin-lined coffin case or let him rise to the occasion of your favorite shelf. You can pre-order it now for $44.99.

Oh, and you will want to watch your local shops for this new set of foil bag Minimates being released this week!!! Jack Skellington, Sally, Oogie Boogie, The Mayor, Dr. Finkelstein. AND....3 exclusive characters: Skeleton Reindeer, a glow-in-the-dark Jack, and a rare glow-in-the-dark Sally!
