So, are you going to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade? One of the hottest attractions of this parade is the Tim Burton specially designed balloon.
The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is one of the most prized Thanksgiving traditions and what makes the 2011 Thanksgiving special is the brand new character that is going to line up the parade. Director Tim Burton is bringing a new balloon and unlike the spooky Jack Skellington or the Corpse Bride, this character is cute.

The name of this new character is B. Boy and it has been created like Frankenstein, “from the leftover balloons used in children’s parties at the Great Ormond Street Hospital in London,” according to Tim Burton.
This is not the first experience Burton has with Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. In 1989, Burton had the batman to add to the charm of the parade.
Check out the latest balloons from Tim Burton as Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade airs on November 23 on NBC.
