I liked the toy mechanic, gave toys purpose and is a fun creative way kids also use their imagination.
on the other hand, getting reeeeeeal tired of the militarized santa gimmick. we got violent night, red one, Arthur christmas. I like when christmas got magic. which this does well, he has the whole league of mythical creatures but they went and got formal with it.
Be fun and goofy, no kid likes watching military sequences. and that goes double for me. Even transformers got that shit, nobody tryna see this old ass general talk. we wanna see cool robots and Uncle Bobby B.
