A warning about Coraline toys, another Coraline giveaway, and more



1. You might want to consider only buying Coraline toys in person. Apparently, the dolls are packaged badly, allowing the paint on the tip of Coraline's nose to rub off.

2. Quick Stop Entertainment is giving away Coraline prize packs.

3. Bruce Wright created a terrific Harry Potter-themed mystery box.

*Buy Coraline keys at eBay.

  7. Dear evilbuttons.com My name is Andrew Morgan and I LOVE this website! I am a HUGE Nightmare Before Christmas fan, and when I heard "from the director of thr nightmare before christmas", I screamed! And then, when I figured out it was Coraline, I screamed LOUDER! If anyone could get this to someone important, I think that those mystery boxes are SO COOL! Can't wait till Feb. 6!!!

  10. Just so you know, Entertainment earth lied about when they would come, like other sites what the toys would look like, and finally that they were bendable. you can't move their hands and they don't come with the puppet rig stands that they showed in the picture.humph!

  11. I don't know but the websites indicate some time around February, March, and April. Depends on where you live.

  12. I have no idea when they'll be in stores. I suspect that if the movie's not a hit, they might be very hard to come by. As I recall, Wall-E toys were relatively difficult to find, and that movie had Disney promoting it.

    (Amazon has them in stock now.)

  14. I wouldn't either. It'd drive me nuts if it showed up with a black nose.

    I don't know if anyone has them in stock. I haven't heard any complaints about the quality on the doll - - just the bend figures.
