Although Tim Burton didn’t quite capture the magic of his 1993 classic The Nightmare Before Christmas, his spiritual follow-up The Corpse Bride (2005) still remains a fan favorite among dedicated niche Burton fans.
In honor of those devoted collectors, Spirit Halloween and Funko have teamed up for this exclusive Victor and Emily Movie Moment Funko POP! Figure. The scene features a Victor Van Dort Funko holding hands with an Emily Funko in the forest while his now revived dog Scraps watches on.
Although the film will always be in its predecessor’s shadow, Corpse Bride was a technological marvel in its own right. It was the first film to use commercial digital photography instead of traditional film. Unlike Nightmare, in which the puppet’s facial expressions were swapped out between frames, Bride incorporated hidden keys within the heads which smoothed out some of the jerky motions associated with earlier animations of its type.
Although The Nightmare Before Christmas has become a seasonal favorite, even taking over Disneyland’s The Haunted Mansion with a seasonal overlay, The Corpse Bride did better at the box office. Whereas the former made over $91M worldwide back in 1993, Bride raked in over $118M.
