When it comes to iconic Halloween tales, one stands out from the rest - Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. Spooky charm, memorable characters, and a love story that crosses the line between life and death have been mesmerizing viewers for years. Now, Monster High, known for its unique and spooky dolls, brings favorite characters Jack Skellington and Sally to your collection with the new Skullektor dolls. This amazing set will only be available at Creations Mattel starting October 27th, 2023 and only for Creations Club members, but it's worth it!
Disney's Pumpkin King: Jack Skellington
Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, is a character known for his lanky frame and stylish pin-striped tuxedo. The Monster High Skullector Jack doll perfectly captures his essence. The attention to detail is impressive, from his long, articulated skeletal body to his trademark bow tie.
The recreation of Jack's appearance is both faithful to the original character and executed with the quality that Monster High is famous for. The pin-striped tuxedo is tailored to hug Jack's svelte figure, and every element, right down to the bow tie, adds a touch of eerie elegance to this beloved character. Jack Skellington is the true embodiment of Disney's Pumpkin King.
Sewn to the nines: Sally
Sally, a cute and caring doll from the city of Halloween, is another character who won the hearts of many. The Monster High Scullector Sally doll embodies every detail of this beloved character. Her signature stitching, long red hair and patchwork dress have been reinterpreted in couture style, making her a terrifyingly fabulous addition to the collection.
Sally's patchwork dress is a work of art, with a cobweb lace hemline that adds a touch of eerie and sophistication. Her handbag is shaped like a spool of thread, a witty nod to her talent for sewing and mending herself. Every detail, from her hauntingly beautiful face to her terrifyingly long red hair, is carefully crafted to capture Sally's essence, making her a must-have for fans of The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Frighteningly silly packaging
Skullector dolls not only capture the essence of Jack and Sally, but also present them in packaging that pays homage to the iconic film. The packaging begins with an illustrated outer sleeve that sets the mood for what's inside. As soon as you peel it off, you'll see the dolls against the background of the holographic foil sticker, adding a sense of magic to the unboxing process.
According to lead designer Rebecca Shipman, this project was a dream come true. "I can't believe we've finally partnered with Tim Burton and Disney!" - she exclaimed. "Creating Monster High versions of these beloved characters is a cry of the soul come true!"
Rebecca Shipman's love for these characters and the film is evident in the meticulous detailing of these Scullector dolls. "I have loved these characters and this movie for so long!" - she shared. "When I see them together in this beautiful package, my black heart rejoices."
"My favorite part of this project was working with our various incredibly talented teams. The sculpting team created Jack's articulated body as a doll. Our soft goods team created a suit for Jack's very slim figure and transformed Sally's iconic patchwork dress into an evening dress . I also enjoyed watching our team paint Sally's hauntingly beautiful face and style her terrifyingly long red hair."
In conclusion, Monster High brought Jack Skellington and Sally to life in a way that fans of The Nightmare Before Christmas will be delighted with for a long time. With impeccable attention to detail, high-quality fabrics, and packaging that underscores the film's iconic status, these Skullektor dolls will make a charming addition to any collection. This adorable duo truly proves that true love never dies, even in a world of ghouls and ghosts.
