A heroic band of lethal puppets: Blade, Pinhead, Tunneler, Jester, Six Shooter, and Leech Woman, join a secret team of Allied Operatives. They all are masters of psychic powers. Together they must face off against the threat of evil Nazi adversaries and their own collection of vicious Axis puppets. The first showdown will decide the future of the free world.
