Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas – Santa Jack Collector's Action Figure (2016 Diamond Select)
The Santa Jack costume variant has long been regarded as one of the most beloved looks in the entire Nightmare Before Christmas universe, capturing the moment Jack Skellington's obsession with Christmas reached its chaotic peak. Diamond Select's NBC Select line, launched in 2015, quickly established itself as the collector standard for screen-accurate NBC figures of the era, and Series 2 (2016) built on that momentum by expanding the roster with fan-demanded characters. Santa Jack was the standout entry of Series 2 — a release that generated immediate collector discussion and was later validated by a "Best of" reissue, cementing its place as one of the defining figures in the lineup.
This vintage example presents on its original red swirl-patterned card with large clamshell blister. The card back features a full Santa Jack character bio, sculpt credit to Dave Cortes, and callouts for Series 2 companions The Mayor and Dr. Finkelstein. The figure itself ships with a teal gift sack, a Halloween-themed gift box, skull ornament accessories, and a modular display base — the latter designed to connect with other NBC Select bases to build a town square diorama. The card shows shelf wear consistent with its age, with some edge and corner wear visible; the blister remains intact and the figure and accessories are complete and unplayed-with.
For collectors building out a complete NBC Select run, Santa Jack is the essential Series 2 piece. The multiple points of articulation and the modular base make it equally appealing as a display piece alongside standard Jack Skellington and Sally releases from Series 1. Whether you're filling a gap in your NBC Select set or tracking down this fan-favourite costume variant for the first time, this is a hard-to-find vintage carded example worth adding to any serious Nightmare Before Christmas collection.

Jays is my first stop in collecting. I preorder things through Walmart, Amazon, Hasbro Pulse, etc., but Jays always seem to get the items and either meet or beat the other companies pricing. I always end up cancelling my pre-orders and going with Jays. Better selection, price and MUCH MUCH better shipping quality. You can't even compare anyone else's shipping and packing to Jays. And that's why Jay's blows them all out of the water.
Great fast shipping, packaging with care. I am definitely buying from Jay's again! Such peace of mind knowing my items will arrive minty. 5 stars!
Perfect and careful packaging, shipped super quick. Thank you, will definitely be following the store!
Didn't pull any punches in item description. Came extremely fast and well packed. Extremely happy being a first time buyer! Thank you.
I've been buying from Jay's for a while now and I am never disappointed with the experience. Prices that can't be beat, easy PayPal option, and lots of bubble wrap surrounding the products. The fact that they go out of their way to make consumers happy keeps me coming back.
This is my 3rd or 4th time I have ordered from Jay's. The orders are always correct and arrive pretty quick and packaged extremely well. Best in the industry.

In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders).
