- Whiskers: A rat that wears a tiny top hat and wields a sharp knife.
- Blue: A bluebird with broken wings and a heartbroken spirit.
These toys form an unlikely alliance, banding together to protect themselves from the dangers that lurk in their shattered world. But as they face threats from both humans and other toys, their bonds are tested and their true natures are revealed.
