The Toy That Saved Christmas (1996)
The Toy That Saved Christmas is the first holiday special in the VeggieTales series. It was released in October 1996 on VHS and DVD on September 15, 2002. The episode presents the Biblical story of the birth of Jesus as the true meaning of Christmas. It takes place in 'Dinkletown' where Mr. Nezzar disguises himself as Santa Claus in order to get children to believe that Christmas is about receiving more toys so that he can make a fortune selling his best toy; Buzz-Saw Louie, a doll that has a Buzz Saw built into his right arm. However, one of the "Louie" dolls doesn't like this idea and sets out to foil Nezzar's scheme.

Famous quotes containing the words toy and/or saved:
“The world of men show like a comedy without laughter: populations, interests, government, history; ‘t is all toy figures in a toy house.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“They tell us sometimes that if we had only kept quiet, all these desirable things would have come about of themselves. I am reminded of the Greek clown who, having seen an archer bring down a flying bird, remarked, sagely: “You might have saved your arrow, for the bird would anyway have been killed by the fall.””
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
