Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great story for the kids
Review: Christmas is coming, but the residents of Dinkletown aren't happy. They children are greedy, demanding more toys then all their friends. Mr. Nezzer isn't helping. He's designed a toy, Buzz-Saw Louie, which will help feed the greed and make him rich. But one of the Louies is convinced there's more to Christmas. He's joined by Larry, Bob, and Junior in his search for the truth. But, even if they find it, can they get the word out to others?

I was a little surprised last night while re-watching to discover just how much I love this Veggie Tales story. Sure, the animation could be better by today's standards. When you remember that this was released in 1996 on a small budget, it puts things in perspective. The story itself has the right combination of fun and surprises to be entertaining. And anything with "Oh, Santa," one of my favorite silly songs, can't be all bad.

Big Idea continues to do their DVD releases right. Mike and Phil do another interesting and entertaining commentary. There's also a behind the scenes feature that includes interviews from some of the other 10 staff members who worked on this. Just don't watch these two back to back as there are several stories that are repeated. I was also thrilled to get the extra animation they did for the showing on PAX. Unfortunately, this feature doesn't have chapter breaks, but I'm definitely glad to have the option of which way I want to watch this story each year.

I've been watching this video every Christmas for several years now. It's won me over and I intend to enjoy it for years to come. Get it today and share the true meaning of Christmas with your family.

Summary: Great Christmas show for the kids!
Review: I bought this (on video) for my kids 3 years ago, and it remains a family favorite. It's a sweet story with a timely Christmas message that's not too preachy or heavy for little kids. My kids enjoy all the VeggieTales stories - the light-hearted, positive themes are great for reinforcing the values I want them to learn, and the silliness is the icing on the cake. I recommend this highly, though you may have to hide it after Christmas, or they'll watch it all year!

Summary: Oh Santa!
Review: I don't understand the previous review. The silly song for this video, "Oh Santa" is one the very best, its definitely not missing. The DVD also adds material from the televised version of the Toy that was missing from the VHS.

In some ways the story of TTTSC is only a slightly modified version of Rack, Shack, & Benny. But it is lots of fun and has great songs, including a Silly Song from Larry.

Summary: Missing the Silly Song
Review: My sons and I love those vegetables! In this adventure, we learn the true meaning of Christmas and that making other people happy can be a wonderful thing. The humor is good, as always, but we were definitely missing Larry's silly song! Not one of the best but definitely something to keep you entertained.

Review: Starting in about October, we watch this at least once every day. Our 3 year old loves it and knows all of the songs. All of the veggie videos are great, but this one is a favorite.
