http://www.kidswb.com/wizard-of-oz/ The site’s target audience are kids aged 2 – 11, but kids at heart are welcome too. The site will have games, activities, and downloads. The new characters are adorable and let’s hope we’ll see them on some product!
Speaking of product, Rubies is branching into Oz décor. This year they have indoor/outdoor legs with feet. They are plastic and measure 18” long.
And the poor Wicked Witch has misjudged her flight plan! The Wicked Witch Flying Into Tree measures 28” high by 24” wide.
Rubies has more items currently unavailable but expected soon such as a Yellow Brick Road floor mat and a Haunted Forest sign measuring 23” high by 27” wide. Keep an eye on Rubies' site for more information.
