Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge is a 1991 horror film from Full Moon Productions and the third instalment in their signature Puppet Master franchise. The film tells the backstory of the titular puppet master, Andre Toulon. Set in Berlin in 1941 (retconning the date of Toulon's death from the first film), the film focus's on a Nazi program to reanimate dead soldiers to serve as living shields for living soldiers in the frontline. When the Nazi's discover both Toulon and his ability to give life to inanimate puppets, they attempt to steal his work, murder his wife, and force him to help with their experiments. Toulon escapes, and plots to take revenge on the Nazi officers with the help of his living puppets.

Released in October of 1991 as a direct-to-video prequel to the first two Puppet Master films, Toulon's Revenge marked a change in tone for the series, turning the puppets from slasher-style villains into much more sympathetic anti-heros and expounding on their various origins.
