Characters / The Toy Castle

The Toys

The Soldier

Portrayed by: Frank Augustyn (The Tin Soldier) Jorden Morris (The Toy Castle)

• Blush Sticker: He has painted red cheeks.
• Control Freak: In some episodes, he tends to be bossy over the other toys, as he thinks he's the leader.

The Ballerina

Portrayed by: Stephanie Hutchinson (The Tin Soldier), Elizabeth Olds (The Toy Castle)

• Flowers of Femininity: She wears pink flowers on her tutu and in her hair.
• Prim and Proper Bun: Fitting for a ballerina, her hair is always tied up tightly in a bun.

The Clown

Portrayed by: Dominic DeWolfe (The Tin Soldier), Keir Knight (The Toy Castle)

• Keet: As a clown, he is always energetic and goofy.

The Rag Doll

Portrayed by: Tonia Stefiuk (The Tin Soldier) Sayaka Karasugi (The Toy Castle)

• Blush Sticker: She has painted red cheeks.
• Girlish Pigtails: Her hair is tied into two long braids with blue bows.
• Literal-Minded: In "Lost My Head", the Clown tells her she's lost her head, to mean she's being silly. She takes this to mean she's literally lost her head, and runs around looking for it.
• Womanchild: She looks like an adult, seeing that her actress is an adult and she seems much older than Little Mouse, who is a child. However, she tends to act the most immature of the toys.

The Goblin

Portrayed by: Louis-Martin Charest (The Tin Soldier), Yosuke Mino (The Toy Castle)

• Abhorrent Admirer: In the special, he makes several unwanted advances towards the Ballerina while the Soldier is gone. This trait is absent in the special.
• Adaptational Attractiveness: Once a sinister and hideous monster in the special, he gained softer facial features and longer hair in the series, making him fit better with the general cutesiness of the other toys.
• Informed Species: The only thing that hints he's a goblin is his pointy ears.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He can be mischievous and a trickster, but still a good friend.
• Red and Black and Evil All Over: Downplayed; he wears red and black, but he's not evil, just tricky.
• Spared by the Adaptation: At the end of The Tin Soldier, the Jack-in-the-Box was shattered on the floor. In The Toy Castle, he lives to the end.
• Sweet Tooth: Some episodes, namely "Tea Party" and "Mid Summer Nightmare", show he has a love for sweets, though he tends to overdo it and end up feeling sick to his stomach.

The Strongman

Portrayed by: Dale Rowse (The Tin Soldier), David Lucas (The Toy Castle)

The China Doll

Portrayed by: Marie-Claude Sabourin (The Tin Soldier), Jennifer Welsman (The Toy Castle)

• A Dog Named "Dog": China Doll is indeed a doll made of fine china.
• Expy: Her curly blonde hair, flouncy dress, and the crook she carries in the special impliy she's meant to be a doll of Little Bo Peep.
• Regal Ringlets: As the most proper and poised of the toys, she wears her hair in ringlets.

The Sailor

Portrayed by: Jean-Francois Allie (The Tin Soldier) Raven S. Wilder (The Toy Castle)

The Frogs

Frederick portrayed by: Sophia Constantini
Freda portrayed by: Ashley Barker

• Alliterative Family: Frederick and Freda Frog.
• Artistic License – Biology: They're identical twins, a boy and girl. In real like, identical twins are always the same sex. Additionally, frogs are born in large litters of tadpoles, so it's unlikely that there would only be two twins. However, this may be because they're toys, and not real frogs.
• Red/Green Contrast: They have green skin, and wear red clothes.

The Mice

Papa Mouse portrayed by: Michael Flynn
Mama Mouse portrayed by: Daiva Preston
Little Mouse portrayed by: Corrine Vessey

• Canon Foreigner: They are exclusive to the series, acting as a softer replacement for the rats from the original special.
• '60s Hair: Mama Mouse wears her hair in a big flip.
• Furry Female Mane: Mama Mouse has long black hair, much longer than the short hair of the boy mice.
• Out of Focus: Papa Mouse is one of the rarest characters to appear in the series.
• Pink Girl, Blue Boy: The two baby mice are a boy wearing blue and a girl wearing pink. Additionally, Little Mouse is a boy who wears blue.

Portrayed by: Audrey Schelling (The Tin Soldier), Ivy Bregman (The Toy Castle)
