However, the night before Christmas is a night of miracles and incredible successes, where all things can come to life... even toys. Jack and the Christmas Pig (TP's replacement, which Jack doesn't like at all) embark on an exciting and dangerous journey through the magical Lost Land. With the help of a talking Lunchbox, a brave Compass, and
a winged Hope, they set out to rescue Jack's best friend from the terrible toy-eater Loser's clutches...
