Not to be mistaken for the Creator/DreamworksAnimation film [[WesternAnimation/{{Abominable}} of the same name and similar concept]]. First announced on the official website, unlisted after the website's update in 2016. It was slated for a release in 2020.

* ScheduleSlip: Due to the handling multiple projects at a time while also having small in-house teams, this has resulted in a number of scheduled works being pushed back another year or indefinitely. As of May 2019, the timeline of animated releases has been removed from Zagtoon's official website, presumably because of the frequency of this trope.
