1980s cartoon with people turning into statues or a wall or something like that

So I have very vivid memories of a scene from a cartoon that scared the crap out of me. Seen on TV, must have been 1987 or so, animated, color, English (though possibly imported Anime that was dubbed into English).

Anyway, during the last scene, people are turning into plastic versions of themselves and it’s up to the main character, who is a child, along with his or her animal friend, to stop this and make everyone human again. S/he does and it’s a happy ending– but it was still enough to scare me a lot as a ~6 year-old.

Thoughts? Thank you!
