All of the soldiers a little boy got for Christmas were the same - except one Tin soldier who was missing a leg. This different soldier saw a paper ballerina, who also appeared to have one leg and fell in love. Will these two toys end up together at last?

On his birthday, a boy receives a set of 25 toy soldiers all cast from one old tin spoon and arrays them on a table top. One soldier stands on a single leg, as having been the last one cast there was not enough metal to make him whole. Nearby, the soldier spies a paper ballerina with a spangle on her sash. She too is standing on one leg and the soldier falls in love. That night, a goblin among the toys in the form of a Jack-in-the-box angrily warns the soldier to take his eyes off the ballerina, but the soldier ignores him.
