Souvenirs from Land of Oz North Carolina!!!

 

The Land of Oz was a wonderful theme park located in picturesque Beech Mt., North Carolina from 1970 to 1980.  It brought the land of Oz literally to life and is a beloved childhood memory for those that experienced it during it's original heyday.  It was closed for many years but is privately owned and now hosts private tours and events such as Journey With Dorothy and Autumn at Oz.  The original park, sadly, fell into disrepair, but restoring it  to it's former glory and more is a true labor of love that deserves our support.  It's attractions like this that make Oz endure for the young and young at heart.  

The original park souvenirs are highly sought after collectibles for both Wizard of Oz fans and collectors of theme park memorabilia.  Now new items are produced for fans to take some of their park experience home to cherish forever.  Fortunately, for those unable to travel, the Land of Oz is offering their memorabilia online. 

Please visit https://www.landofoznc.com/ to order these lovely items and more!!!   If you come across something out of stock, don't fear, more stock is expected mid December as is the DARLING sneak peek below. 

****SNEAK PEEK****

Wizard of Oz Chrome Toto Statue by Factory Entertainment

 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!!!

A BIG thank you to Factory Entertainment for including The Wizard of Oz in this year's Comic Con experience!!

Funko Oz Sneak Peek From Comic Con

 

Funko is overall one of my very favorite collectible companies.  The quality and imagination they put into their product is just awesome!!  I'm very happy to see them return to the Land of Oz!! 

 

No release date or pricing info as of yet, but stay tuned.  

 

Funko just prior to Comic Con announced the addition of a new line of product called Vynl.  The first sets debuted were Jason/Freddie of horror movie fame, Masters of the Universe He-Man and Trap Jaw, and Nightmare Before Christmas' Sally and Jack.  Funko announced more releases and previewed the concept art for Dorothy, Toto, and the Scarecrow. They should be about the size of Funko's popular Pop line and it looks like they will come in packs of two.  Or three, since it looks like Toto will be included.  I hope Funko expands Oz into more of their vinyl and plush lines!! I can't express enough how thrilled I am Funko is producing Oz again!!!!!
