When the Zentra came to Earth, they disguised Zentrabots as the Christmas "toy craze". When the Zentrabots were underneath children's Christmas trees, the Zentra sent an activation signal to kidnap a hundred thousand children, and demanded to one of Earth's governments that they would hand over all its weapons or the children would die. The children were successfully rescued by the Eleventh Doctor. (COMIC: The Zentrabot Invasion)
