Few other movies have been able to capture the hearts of people of all ages and backgrounds, and it will always be viewed as one of the quintessential films from legendary director Tim Burton.

Whether you’re a fan of the movie, a collector of  action figures, or a bit from both column A and column B, you’re going to love these Nightmare Before Christmas figurines. Spooky and fun, they make fantastic gifts for your loved ones or for your own collection. We decided to showcase five of our absolute favorite Nightmare Before Christmas toys.

Warning: there are mild spoilers below, so beware!

1. Medicom Udf-277 Ultra Detail Figure The Nightmare Before Christmas Pajama Jack

This  Medicom Pajama Jack action figure is somehow simultaneously spooky and sweet – much like the movie itself. This is one of those Nightmare Before Christmas figurines that immediately reminds you of a specific scene.

When Jack is trying to learn about Christmas, he puts on his cozy pajamas, and curls up near a Christmas tree with a variety of books about Santa and the holiday. He says to himself, “There’s got to be a logical way to explain this Christmas thing…” Then, he pulls out a book called The Scientific Method.

This figurine shows Jack reading one of his books, desperately trying to understand the true meaning of Christmas. This scene sets the stage for the rest of his adventure.

The height of this awesome figurine is approximately 100 mm, and the attention to detail is outstanding. This is one of the more unique Nightmare Before Christmas figurines you’ll find, as this outfit was only worn briefly in the film.

2. Medicom Udf-278 Ultra Detail Figure The Nightmare Before Christmas Pumpkin King

This is one of the coolest Nightmare Before Christmas toys because it’s pure Halloween. There’s no holly jollies with this figure – just pure, unadulterated Hallow’s Eve spookiness. This creeptastic Pumpkin King action figure features phenomenal detailing, and it stands roughly 115 mm high.

This figure represents Jack in his scarecrow/wicker-man costume. Jack is known as the “Pumpkin King” because he’s the one who travels to the real world to scare people on Halloween.

At the beginning of the movie, you see Jack attached to the “Halloween Town” sign. During the song, “This Is Halloween,” Jack comes to life and leaps off the sign, swallows a torch, and bursts into flames before diving into the town’s fountain. It’s implied that this is an annual Halloween tradition.

This is another one of the Nightmare Before Christmas figurines that’s sure to appeal to die-hard fans. Jack Skellington wears many masks and costumes, and this scarecrow look is easily one of the most iconic, even though he’s only seen wearing it briefly.

3. Medicom Udf-274 Ultra Detail Figure Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Skellington

Of course we had to include the classic  Jack Skellington figure. This is the most recognizable out of all of the Nightmare Before Christmas figurines, showing jack in his signature black and white pin-stripe suit with a bat bow –tie and sharp black dress shoes. He’s standing in one of his dramatic poses, with one hand at his hip and the other flourishing in the air.

Out of all of the Nightmare Before Christmas toys, this is the one that fans simply must own. Meticulous detailing and crisp painting make this figurine a joy to look at and display. It stands at approximately 95 mm high.

4. Medicom Udf-279 Ultra Detail Figure The Nightmare Before Christmas Snowman Jack

Another one for the true fans, this  Snowman Jack figurine portrays Jack disguised as a snowman. You only get to see Jack in this costume for a few seconds, so it’s a fantastic conversation piece for collectors and fans who want to flex their Nightmare Before Christmas trivia knowledge, or for those who just love unique Nightmare Before Christmas figurines.

When Jack arrives in Christmas Town, he’s flabbergasted by the holiday sights and sounds. He dances around the town singing “What’s This?” During the song, he comes upon a snowman, and removes its nose and rearranges the rocks to look like buttons, and then he slips inside, replacing the snowman’s head with his own. Some Christmas elves ride by on a Polar Bear, none the wiser of Jack’s presence in their town.

5. Medicom Kubrick-119 Kubrick Nightmare Before Christmas Glow In The Dark Set B
