Dot-Pin Jack Skellington

Disney and Tomy expand their Dot-Pin offerings with a new set based on the main character of Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas. The NBC Dots kit includes four panels and a total of 750 pegs split in white, black, pink, purple, and a new color called "glow." As in, these pegs glow in the dark for nifty luminous effects on spooky nights.

By pushing colored pegs into panels, dot artists may create various representations of Jack Skellington of Halloween Town including one where he opens his powerful maw like jaws.
Please note that the pricing for Disney branded Dots kits are higher than the other standard Dots kits due to the magic known as Disney licensing costs. Maybe the "glow" color also costs more in fabrication costs. Pricing is set at US$19 per kit and all preorders ship today. New orders are welcome.
