The collection features the Pumpkin King, Jack Skellington, alongside Sally, Zero, and key locations like Spiral Hill and Halloween Town Hall.
There’s no better way to kick off the spooky season than with the launch of a special LEGO set inspired by a Halloween classic.
The LEGO Group announced on Tuesday that characters from “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” including Jack Skellington, have been captured in delightful “brick form.”
This eagerly awaited set, scheduled for release next month, aims to bring the “spooky charm” and “playful details” of the beloved film to life, according to their press statement.
LEGO fans can expect to be transported into a “ghoulishly delightful” world, adding a whimsical spin to this holiday season.
Designer Simon Scott was among thousands who voted for this design to become an actual set. He expressed his gratitude, stating, “It’s truly an honor.”
“Being a huge fan of both LEGO and Disney Tim Burton’s ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas,’ I’m thrilled to see my design come to life in brick form,” Scott shared in a news release. “The film resonates with families, captivating fans of all ages around the globe.”
‘Nightmare Before Christmas’ LEGO launches this fall
The “Nightmare Before Christmas” LEGO collection will hit shelves on Friday, Sept. 6, both online and in retail stores, priced at $199.99.
‘Iconic’ locations and characters featured in ‘Nightmare Before Christmas’
LEGO has taken “Nightmare Before Christmas” themed creations to new heights with a set that contains 2,193 pieces showcasing three “iconic” settings from the film. Fans and collectors can anticipate a “satisfying building experience.”
Upon completion, this LEGO set will display Spiral Hill, Jack Skellington’s residence, and Halloween Town Hall, as noted in the press release.
No “Nightmare Before Christmas” LEGO collection would be complete without its quirky characters. Jack Skellington, Sally, Santa Claus, Lock, Shock, Barrel, Zero the dog, and a two-faced brick-style Mayor will all make their appearances in this set.
Several fun accessories will also be included, such as a removable roof that showcases Jack’s Christmas plan, a detailed graveyard scene, a walking bathtub, and the Town Hall lectern where Jack delivered his famed speech.
