Story

Celebrate the magic of a new Christmas classic!

With just days to go before presents are scheduled for Christmas delivery, Toyland is buzzing with activity. However, curmudgeonly creditor Barnaby Crookedman is hatching a devious scheme to destroy Toyland – meaning no presents for the world's children! Siblings Jack and Jill, alongside toy factory workers Tom and Mary, rush into action to stop the villain, receiving some assistance from the likes of Humpty Dumpty and even Santa Claus himself.
