Hippo Blue releases Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas collection, in deal managed by Born to License

Hippo Blue adds a playful twist to everyday essentials with a new collection inspired by Jack Skellington.

Hippo Blue is keeping the licensing momentum going with another standout launch—and this one’s got a spooky twist. After a year filled with fan-favorite collections featuring Disney Pixar’s Toy Story, an adult Star Wars range, and a whimsical Disney Classics drop, the Australian brand is diving headfirst into the world of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.

The new collection captures everything we love about the film—its gothic flair, quirky humor, and imaginative charm—while bringing it to life across Hippo Blue’s signature personalized products. From backpacks and bento boxes to drink bottles, lunch bags, and name labels, each item delivers that perfect blend of spooky and sweet, just in time for the season.

As always, Hippo Blue’s hallmark is personalization. Families can add their child’s name, choose colors, and make each product uniquely their own—a creative touch that turns practical items into keepsakes.
