This Is Halloween – Funko Pop! Super Jack Skellington Light Up Review

June 2, 2026

This is Halloween. This is Halloween. Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween. If those words make your heart sing — if the opening notes of Danny Elfman’s masterpiece immediately transport you to Halloween Town, to a world of beautiful darkness and joyful terror — then the Funko Pop! Super: The Nightmare Before Christmas – Jack Skellington Light Up Vinyl Figure is the display piece you’ve been waiting for. Standing 18.5cm tall in Funko’s premium Super format, Jack holds his glowing purple candles aloft — an integrated light-up function that illuminates him from within, casting the Pumpkin King in the eerie, beautiful glow that defines The Nightmare Before Christmas. On sale at £22.50 (was £26.00), with 5 in stock, this is the statement piece that belongs at the centre of every Halloween and NBC display.

Why This Is the Definitive Jack Skellington Funko

The store carries two Jack Skellington figures — the Formal Jack (9cm, £12.99, the essential everyday display) and this Super Light Up (18.5cm, £22.50 on sale, the statement centrepiece). They serve different purposes and different collectors — but if you can only choose one, the Super Light Up is the one that stops people in their tracks. At nearly twice the height of a standard Pop, with glowing purple candles that actually illuminate, this is Jack Skellington as he was meant to be displayed: tall, dramatic, luminous, and utterly commanding. It’s the figure that makes a room. Pair both for the complete Jack collection at just £35.49.

The Nightmare Before Christmas – Thirty Years of Timeless Magic

The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) is one of the most extraordinary animated films ever made — a stop-motion masterpiece directed by Henry Selick from Tim Burton’s story and poem, with Danny Elfman’s score woven so deeply into the film that the music and the visuals are inseparable. Jack Skellington — voiced by Chris Sarandon, sung by Danny Elfman himself — is one of animation’s most distinctive and beloved characters: a skeleton who has mastered Halloween but yearns for something more, who discovers Christmas and nearly destroys it through the best of intentions. The film works as Halloween, as Christmas, as a meditation on identity and belonging, and as pure visual poetry. Thirty years later, it has never been more beloved.

Real-Life Usage Situations

🎃 1. The Halloween Display Centrepiece

At 18.5cm with glowing purple candles, the Jack Skellington Super Light Up is the undisputed centrepiece of any Halloween display — the figure that anchors the shelf, that draws the eye from across the room, that makes every other Halloween decoration look better by association. Display him alongside the Mickey Mouse Jack-O-Lantern Light Up Super for a Disney Halloween display of extraordinary visual impact — two glowing Super figures, two of Disney’s most beloved Halloween icons, one spectacular shelf.

🎄 2. The Christmas Display Statement Piece

Jack Skellington is as much a Christmas character as a Halloween one — his obsession with Christmas, his attempt to bring it to Halloween Town, and his ultimate understanding of what Christmas truly means make him a genuinely appropriate December display choice. The Super Light Up on a Christmas shelf, glowing purple among the traditional red and green, is the most distinctive and conversation-starting Christmas display decision imaginable. It’s the choice that says you celebrate both holidays with equal passion.

🎁 3. The Premium Gift for the NBC Fan

The Super Light Up is the premium NBC gift — the figure that goes beyond the standard Pop to deliver genuine display impact. On sale at £22.50 (was £26.00), it’s a premium gift at a reduced price: 18.5cm, glowing purple candles, the Pumpkin King in his most spectacular form. For any fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas, this is the gift that produces an immediate, genuine reaction of delight. It’s the gift that makes them say “This is Halloween.”

💡 4. The Light-Up Display Collector’s Crown Jewel

For collectors who specialise in light-up Funko figures, the Jack Skellington Super Light Up is the crown jewel — the most visually spectacular light-up figure in the NBC range, from one of animation’s most beloved films, in Funko’s premium Super format. Display him alongside the Mickey Mouse Jack-O-Lantern Light Up and the Ghost of Christmas Past Glow for a light-up display that spans Halloween, Christmas, and the supernatural — three glowing figures, three beloved properties, one extraordinary shelf.

Is £22.50 Worth It? This Is Halloween — It’s Worth Every Penny.

Funko Pop! Super figures with light-up features typically retail for £18–£30. The Jack Skellington Super Light Up at £22.50 (reduced from £26.00) sits in the middle of that range at a sale price — and for 18.5cm of glowing Pumpkin King from one of animation’s most beloved films, it’s not just worth it. It’s the best value premium NBC collectible available.

“At £22.50 (was £26.00) for Jack Skellington at 18.5cm with glowing purple candles — the Pumpkin King in his most spectacular Funko form, on sale, 5 in stock — this is the most magnificent NBC collectible of 2026. This is Halloween.”
