December 2005 - Tim Burton's Corpse Bride has inspired another stunning series of collector's dolls, and they're available exclusively in North America through Diamond Comic Distributors!

Another Tim Burton classic, The Corpse Bride, carries on in the dark, romantic tradition of Burton's classic films Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas. Set in a 19th century European village, this stop-motion, animated feature combines wholesome comedy with creepy horror.

So pleased was Burton with Japanese manufacturer Jun Planning, which wowed the world with its amazing dolls based on The Nightmare Before Christmas, he personally requested they produce the collection of dolls for Tim Burton's Corpse Bride.

Victor and the Corpse Bride

Imported from Japan, the exquisite Tim Burton's Corpse Bride Collector's Dolls include the lead characters packaged together forever in a collector's edition Piano Box/Coffin with simulated lining and keyboard. Joined for eternity by Scrap the skeli-dog are 17" tall Victor and the 16" tall Corpse Bride with Bridal Bouquet. These articulated dolls are nearly 100% accurate re-creations of the original models used in the film, and each feature a wonderfully sculpted head and detailed cloth costume. These collector's dolls are scheduled to ship in March 2006 for a suggested retail price of $168.
