"The Steadfast Tin Soldier"

...this reminded me so much of the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen about a tin soldier's love for a paper ballerina...(Danish: Den standhaftige tinsoldat). Used to love reading this as a child and always felt so sad.

Unfortunately no ballerinas in this one and the Xmas spirit seems to be missing from the faces of these guys , but I suppose it's all about sales nowadays.

Raining.
