This is a really well crafted animated piece. It starts with a bunch of cast off toys landing in a dump. They are all pretty much damaged in some way. One little character takes it upon himself to get things rolling, helping to repair everyone. Some of it is makeshift, like using pencils to replace the limbs of damaged soldiers. Or using a thimble for a helmet. This is nicely done. Once again, sixty some years after the Civil War, the black characters are still being treated as weak, lazy characters. There is a Stepin-Fetchit guy who doesn't want to do any work, even to help, but gets coerced into helping. He also falls asleep during the surgery of the little doll and her "heart" stopes beating. These are more abrasive than the usual stupidity. But the overall effect is good.
