It almost seems like a tradition every fall now for lots of new Nightmare stuff at Disney and Suncoast stores. NECA who makes most of the stuff they sell at Suncoast has gotten alot better at their merchandise lately, the earlier stuff didn't look so good, now their newer stuff looks great. Notice how Disney was reluctant to merchandise Nightmare when it first came out but recently with their lack of creativity Nightmare suddenly isn't too "dark" for Disney anymore. Back in '93 they would have never even considered putting Mickey in a Jack outfit, they're desperate.

I've noticed that most of the NBC stuff at suncoast are re-releases. The figures are the same as the Hasbro ones from when the movie first came out. I've seen re-issues of the dolls from Applause too. This ticks me off, as the stuff was worth a ton, and now won't be as every tom, dick, or sally can buy the new stuff, and pretend its original run stuff and try to sell it to unaware collectors. Grrrrr
