Wizard Of Oz Dolls

The 'Wizard of Oz' has been successfully adapted into stage and film productions from the classic children's book by L. Frank Baum. The story is about the surrealistic adventures of Dorothy and her dog, being lifted away in their house from Kansas by a strong tornado to the fantasy world of Oz. She is joined by the Scare crow, the Tin man, and the cowardly Lion towards Emerald City, in pursuit of the great wizard of Oz. The 1939 movie directed by Victor Fleming was the most popular the movie based on this story. The cast of the movie includes stars such as Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Margaret Hamilton, Jack Haley, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, and Billie Burke. Several dolls based on the characters of the 'Wizard of Oz' are sold worldwide. These characters include little Dorothy, Glinda, the Good Witch of the North, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Scarecrow, the Tinman, the Cowardly Lion, and the Winged Monkeys. There are several other dolls manufactured based on themes in this movie such as the pair of ruby slippers worn by Dorothy, and fashionable feminine figures displaying Emerald city elegance. These products bear the typical features of these popular characters. The Tinman is typically dressed in a silver vinyl 'tin' suit, the Scarecrow usually has straw, or something resembling it, along with the flannel top and pants, while the Cowardly Lion can be found dressed in a one-piece furry lion suit. All these dolls usually have well embroidered outfits that bear the same colors and patterns as the original characters in the movie.
