Disney fans, LEGO is about to get a touch of Disney film magic with a new LEGO set on the way.
Disney and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) is the perfect combination of a Halloween and Christmas animated movie for Disney fans. Jack Skellington (voiced by Chris Sarandon and Danny Elfman) is the King of Halloween Town. He journeys and discovers Christmas Town, which he can’t get enough of. Jack attempts to bring Christmas to his home town causing much confusion. In the midst of chaos, love blossoms as Jack and Sally (voiced by Catherine O’Hara), a neighboring rag doll, connect.
And now, The Nightmare Before Christmas is about to become its very own LEGO set! What started as a LEGO Idea project submitted in 2022 has grown to over 10,000 supporters. After LEGO’s extensive expert review, in February 2023, the company agreed to create the LEGO Idea of The Nightmare Before Christmas.
The LEGO Idea combines several areas of Halloween Town from the Disney film. The Pumpkin King’s (Jack Skellington’s) house stands tall in the middle of the LEGO structure with a full 360-degree reveal of 3 internal rooms that hold intricate details linked to the film.
At the base of Jack’s house, LEGO fans will see the gothic Town Square, which includes the Town Hall and characters Lock, Shock, and Barrel, as they kidnap Santa Claus in their walking bathtub.
The other side of the base has the incredible Spiral Hill and the town’s graveyard, home to Jack’s beloved ghost dog, Zero. Even Dr. Finkelstein can be seen wandering the graves! Jack and Sally stand on the top of Spiral Hill, just like in the memorable film scene.
In all, the LEGO structure contains approximately 2000 pieces along with eight LEGO minifigures, including Jack Skellington, Sally Stitches, Dr. Finkelstein, Lock, Shock, Barrel, Santa, and Jack as Sandy Claws.
LEGO’s most recent statement about the project notes:
PROJECT APPROVED FOR PRODUCTION AS A LEGO IDEAS SET! We’re very excited to release Tvrulesmylife’s The Nightmare Before Christmas project as our next LEGO Ideas set! The final design, pricing and release date are still being worked out.
LEGO has yet to announce when The Nightmare Before Christmas LEGO set will be complete. We will be sure to share further news, however, as it is released, as we are sure this will be an extremely popular LEGO set for Disney and LEGO fans of all ages.
