Well due to the Collection and several other matters, the creative team behind this year's Christmas special got a little.....lax. Ironically we came up with some good ideas close to the end, but no time to do them. So we went with an original, simple, calm show today. So...enjoy. ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v735/RandallB/ChristmasSlideone.jpg)

Heehee, wonder if Ran was pretending that the trunk of that tree was a certain one-eyed, loud-mouthed green Scare Assistant?

Actually ever time Ran does that he might picture someone like that 0_0 Good thing he's using a punching bag instead of the actual person 0_0

Also I think the word use of "timber" in this circumstance shall never apply to someone a 3 feet tall ^0^ ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v735/RandallB/ChristmasSlideThree.jpg)

Heh heh. Good stuff, though I am still a bit confused over what the 'Misers' Spyro is referring.
Still, hope to see more of this (and Randall!)

Heh heh. Good stuff, though I am still a bit confused over what the 'Misers' Spyro is referring. Still, hope to see more of this (and Randall!) "Heat Miser" and his brother, "Snow Miser", were two characters in the 1974 Rankin/Bass stop-motion animated tv movie, A Year Without a Santa Claus. Each one controlled certain elemens of the weather in different parts of the country, and they couldn't get along. Heat Miser looked like a fat, alchoholic version of Syndrome while Snow Miser was tall and thin and looked sorta like Uncle Sam. One of Santa's reindeer gets captured in a small southern town and mistaken for a DOG(!?) and sent to the pound, and the mayor of the town agrees to return the deer to Santa ONLY if he can make it snow in the hot southern town for the first time on Christmas. Since Heat Miser controls the weather in that part of the country, it's up to his brother, Snow Miser, to make it work, but that can only happen if Heat Miser is allowed to take over the weather at the North Pole on the same day. pitbulllady

As Pitbullady stated, yes that is correct. Actually...this year's special was suppose to emulate many of the Rankin/Bass Christmas works. So we started with that in mind. Of course we added some "Christmas Themed Characters" that were iconic for the holiday. However...since of the attention we HAD to pay to the Collection, we didn't get as much done as we wanted to. Hence why we ended on a page............and a half. Here's the half ^_^ See if you can guess who's who ^_^
