Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer & the Island of Misfit Toys

Rudolph is overwhelmed with praise for saving Christmas and grows tired of being a mere novelty act. He decides to team up with Hermey, who is now a dentist, and they head off to help others beyond his nose tricks. Their goal is to travel to the Island of Misfit Toys to perform a root canal for King Moonracer and prove there is more to Rudolph than spectacle.

Rudolph and Hermey travel to the Island of Misfit Toys to provide a dental procedure for King Moonracer. Hermey uses his dentistry skills while Rudolph offers encouragement and learns more about the island's forgotten toys. The mission marks Rudolph's shift from mere spectacle to practical help.

A fierce storm forces Rudolph and Hermey off course and lands them at Castaway Cove. There they meet Queen Camilla, a hippopotamus-like fairy who repairs damaged toys. Rudolph begins to see a larger world of toy-making and repair beyond his nose tricks.

Rudolph contemplates trading his glowing nose for a normal one, hoping for wider acceptance. He is warned that losing his nose would prevent him from leading the sleigh on foggy nights, risking Santa's deliveries. Santa weeps at the potential loss of Rudolph's unique gift.

The Toy Taker steals the toys from Santa's workshop and from Camilla's place, claiming he is saving them from being outgrown by children. The theft sets a countdown to Christmas and raises the stakes for Rudolph and friends. The Toy Taker's motive reveals a darker, protective edge to the villainy.

With three days until Christmas, Rudolph forms a plan to foil the Toy Taker with Clarice, Hermey, Yukon Cornelius, and the Bumble. They predict the thief will target the Island of Misfit Toys next and decide to disguise themselves as toys to lure him. The team bonds as they prepare their counter-move.

The Toy Taker's blimp arrives and steals the group along with the Misfit Toys, while Bumble remains too large to fit and chases on an iceberg. The theft hurls Rudolph and friends into a perilous chase across the sky and sea. The stakes rise as the Toy Taker heads toward the Island.

A tense chase unfolds around the blimp; Yukon Cornelius loses his balance and slips into the void but is saved by Bumble. Hermey struggles to regain control as the group fights to stay connected. The intruders are eventually dumped from the blimp and scramble to regroup.

Hermey manages to pilot the blimp back toward Christmastown and is saved by Bumble just before it crashes. The team regroups after the rough return to civilization, though the Toy Taker remains at large. They set their sights on stopping him before Christmas.

The Toy Taker heads into Yukon's Peppermint Mine to escape, triggering a high-stakes chase. Yukon uses his cunning, helped by Hermey's dental floss, to outmaneuver the thief. The capture finally reveals the Toy Taker's true identity.

The Toy Taker is unmasked as Mr. Cuddles, a teddy bear on stilts who once belonged to a boy named Steven. Steven outgrew him and threw him away, but Mr. Cuddles chose to save other toys by becoming the 'Taker'. Santa explains that the boy's intentions were closer to care than cruelty.

Rudolph and friends bring Mr. Cuddles to Queen Camilla for repairs and cheer, and Rudolph resolves to keep his distinctive nose after all. The journey shows that working together can mend both toys and hearts. The group remains hopeful for the magic of Christmas.

Santa delivers presents as Rudolph and friends watch. Mr. Cuddles is returned to his owner, Steven, who is now grown with a child. Steven's daughter awakens, cuddles him, and smiles as Santa and Rudolph disappear into the night, reaffirming the bond between toys and their people.
