Oz the Great & Powerful coming soon to Disney Stores


No product is shown yet, but it's exciting just the same!!!!   Please keep in mind this is the Disney Store UK site and the UK may get different merchandise than we do, but I don't think we'll be lacking at all.  And March 8 will probably be here faster than we think.

Kohl's Cares Plush Toto


100% of the profits from these and other adorable plushes go back in the community to support children.  Toto and his coordinating Wonderful Wizard of Oz book sumptuously illustrated by Charles Santore are only $5 each.  Charles Santore's edition of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is hailed as one of the most beautifully illustrated editions ever published and is a favorite among Oz fans.  Toto is around 10 inches tall and is very soft to the touch & cuddly.  With Halloween around the corner I expect Toto to go very fast.  He's very reasonably priced for a costume accessory and for a plush in general. 

You can read more here about Kohl's Cares and Charles Santore's participation in the program. 

 
If you don't live near Kohl's or your local store is out of stock you can order Toto and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz online

Byers' Choice 2012 Carolers

Byers' Choice is offering a special Dorothy & Toto.  She is priced at $73.00 plus applicable sales tax.  Print out the form and return to your local Byers' Choice retailer by September 1.  Caroler figures are proudly made in the United States.  Byers matriarch Joyce designs each face and outfit.  The Carolers started out as an intimate family affair but has expanded to include 80 artisans to accommodate demand.  Each year the Byers family donates 20% of their profits to charity. 

Dorothy was first introduced in 2010 as a Christmas Dove exclusive.  That Dorothy wore red glittered shoes and Toto was a figurine to be purchased separately.  The 2012 edition Dorothy is wearing silver slippers as originally envisioned by L. Frank Baum and she's holding Toto close.

 
Click here to print out order form.


The Christmas Dove Oz series continued after Dorothy and Toto with a Wicked Witch for 2011 and a Cowardly Lion for 2012. 

Any of these figures would be charming additions to an Oz, Christmas, or storybook collection.
