* JealousRomanticWitness: Apple is a platonic version -- she thought she was Jaime's special toy until she witnessed Rugby's arrival the next Christmas.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: Meteora is an action figure doll and it's implied that her toy is based on a TV series. With her imposing and self-centered nature, it's hard not to make the assumption that she's intended to be a villain within her franchise, but she eventually accepts the fact that she's a toy and goes back into her box.



* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler:After Mew gets frozen, Rugby tells him he loves him. This brings him back to life.]]

''\\
''So much I longed to say
''\\
''First of all, most of all
