Over the years, the film has inspired a devoted fan base, and it's easy to see why. The animation is beautiful, the songs are on par with almost anything from Disney, and most of all, the character designs are incredible.
The most iconic, of course, is Jack Skellington himself, the pumpkin king and man about town. Because of this, we've seen multiple iterations of him in toys throughout the years. First of all, let me get the formalities out of the way. Review: Play Arts Jack Skellington by Square Enix - TOMOPOP. I know I'll probably get yelled at for this, but I have to admit that as a kid The Nightmare Before Christmas wasn't exactly a movie I liked. I actually hated it, despite all of the cool, rebellious street cred it attained. But this particular Jack Skellington isn't simply from Halloweentown, he's also from Kingdom Hearts 2. KH2 you say? Surely I must be a fan of that series, at least! I'm sorry to disappoint. Kingdom Hearts wasn't a series that I ever got into, despite my love for both Disney and Final Fantasy.
