LEGO has once again captured the hearts of fans by officially announcing the much-anticipated LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas (21351) set. This intricately designed masterpiece, inspired by the iconic 1993 Tim Burton film, perfectly encapsulates the eerie charm and whimsical details that make the movie a timeless classic. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the film or a LEGO enthusiast, this set is sure to be a highlight of your LEGO Ideas collection.
Relive the Magic of Halloween Town in LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas
Prepare to go back to the ghoulishly delightful world of Halloween Town as rendered in bricks through the LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas set. This latest LEGO offering allows you to recreate three of the most iconic locations from the 1993 animated film: Spiral Hill, Jack Skellington’s House, and Halloween Town Hall. Each of these settings is crafted with extraordinary attention to detail, offering an authentic experience that brings the beloved animated classic to life.
Build Nostalgia with Authentic Details
The LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas set is packed with details that will transport you straight to the world of Halloween Town. Lift off the roof of Jack Skellington’s house to reveal his Christmas formula, explore a detailed graveyard, and take a peek at the walking bathtub and Town Hall lectern where Jack delivers his famous speech. These intricate elements are sure to evoke a sense of nostalgia, making this set a treasure trove for fans of the film.
Meet the Beloved Characters of Halloween Town
No LEGO set is complete without its characters, and the LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas does not disappoint. The set includes eight beloved Disney characters, each brought to life with impressive accuracy. You’ll find newer minifigure versions of Jack Skellington and Sally, uniquely different from when we first saw them in their LEGO version as seen in the LEGO Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71024) from 2019.
We also have new iterations of Santa Claus, Lock, Shock, Barrel, Zero the Dog (I have to say that this is a must-have collectible), and a two-faced brick-built figure of The Mayor. These characters not only add to the playability of the set but also serve as perfect display pieces for any fan of the movie.
A Fan-Driven Masterpiece
The LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas set is a product of the LEGO Ideas platform, where fans have the opportunity to submit their own designs. This particular set managed to emerge as the set of choice during the LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review Stage, together with the LEGO Ideas Red London Telephone Box (21347).
The creative mind behind the LEGO Ideas The Nightmare Before Christmas set is UK-based LEGO fan Simon Scott, whose design garnered an overwhelming 10,000 votes, leading to its production as an official LEGO set. Simon’s love for both LEGO and Tim Burton’s masterpiece shines through in every detail.
As Simon shared during a LEGO Ideas interview, “I’m a massive fan of LEGO builds and Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas film, so I’m honored to see my creation come to life in physical brick form. The film is such a family hit with young & old fans from around the world. The Ideas team has done a fantastic job creating a wonderfully playable set that is just as appealing as a display piece.”
