72 Santa Jack Skellington, Disney

Santa Jack Skellington

Is from the stop motion movie The Nightmare Before christmas. The story is about Jack and his plans to celebrate Yule in Halloween town. This version is dressed in a Santa costume.

Santa Jack Skellington is the 72nd figure in the Funko vinyl pop Disney line.

 Despite his costume it is easy to see that this is really Jack Skellington.

 Jack has indented eyes mouth and nose. A different head sculpt to the first Jack Skellington.

He wears a Santa costume and carries a wrapped present. He is in the same pose as the first figure but it is mirrored, meaning his left arm is now doing what his right was in the first sculpt. 

This is not just a recolour but a new sculpt.

How cool would a pop reindeer and sleigh be?

He makes a nice Xmas or Yule ornament and is a fine addition to any Funko pop collection.

Jack Skellington

 

Is from the stop motion movie The Nightmare Before christmas. The story is about Jack and his plans to celebrate Yule in Halloween town.

 Jack Skellington is the 15th figure in the Funko vinyl pop Disney line.

Its  easy to recognise who this figure represents.

 He has a nice molded smile, though its different to the one on the box. His eyes are indented and he has holes for a nose.

He looks quite dapper in his striped suit.

The "frayed" tail looks cool.

The collar is a nice touch.

Do we want a Halloween mobile for him to drive, yes i think we do.

 The perfect gift for an undead fan.

 About the holidays:

christmas is a christian holiday believed to have been incorporated into the christian calender to help convert the pagans, it is heavily based on Yule, the pagan holy celebration of the winter solstice. Yule is celebrated 21 or 22 December in the northern hemisphere and 21 June in the southern hemisphere.

Halloween or Samhain is a seasonal religious holy day celebrated on the 30th of April–1st of May in the Southern Hemisphere, and as it is a seasonal festival it is celebrated on the 31st of October –1st of November in the northern hemisphere.

At Samhain the veil between this world and the spiritual world is very thin, as such it is a time to communicate, honor and pay respect to those who have died.
