To all the Toto fans that ordered back in July.........was that wait torture or what?? Covid and customs rush for no man. This was a dismally slow year for Wizard of Oz collecting anyway so it was a HUGE thrill to see an Oz offering from Factory Entertainment via their Consolation Con, so named on account of the cancellation of San Diego Comic Con. That aside, good things do come to those who wait!
The patience was worth it!! This stylized version of Toto is adorable!! Major kudos to the designer and sculptor of this piece. Such a darling, refreshing take on Toto!! I'm a huge Toto fan so I'm very particular and my heart just melted when I removed him from the box. How can you not love the expression on his little face? I imagine him as a puppy seeing Dorothy for the first time. This charming little guy is resin with a beautiful goldish brown chrome finish. He is packaged in a nice Toto-centric box. Measurements are shown in photos below. Not too big nor too small; he is displayable anywhere!
He was limited to 250 pieces and he sold out in October.
Toto is part of Factory Entertainment's new collectible statute line. What an honor for a beloved Oz character to help launch a new collectible line. The other two chrome statues to kick off the line were The Candidate from the film They Live and the ever iconic Beatles Yellow Submarine.
Factory Entertainement knocked it out of the park with their first Wizard of Oz release!! I couldn't help but notice that Wizard of Oz is listed under their brands on Factoryent.com so I hope we'll be seeing much more Wizard of Oz for 2021!!!
