[edit] Plot
The film revisits classic characters like Hermey the Elf (now a D.D.S.) and Rudolph, who is now famous at the North Pole. Not satisfied with being a "freak show" performing tricks with his nose, he tags along when Hermie travels to the Island of Misfit Toys to give King Moonracer (a winged lion) a root canal. Meanwhile The Evil Toy Taker is stealing all of the toys form the island. It's up to Rudolph, Hermie, Yukon Corneilus, and the Abominable Snowman "Bumbles" to stop him.
