American Greetings Debuts New Wizard of Oz Greeting Card
It was announced a year ago that American Greetings would be expanding their partnership with WB to include the Wizard of Oz starting January first of this year. Joy! Rapture! Oz fans LOVE greeting cards!!!
Finally we get our first release for graduates of 2017. I am hoping this is the start of long, beautiful friendship that will eventually expand beyond greeting cards.
Inside reads:
"When you have the courage to use your brain and the smarts to follow your heart, there's nothing you can't accomplish. Congratulations and well done"
I apologize my camera didn't capture the overall prettiness of the card. The gold filigree design is a nice touch. The words on the front are outlined in a shiny green and the photo on the card is covered in a pearlescent sheen. American Greetings are sold at a variety of locations. Some Walmart groceries, some Walgreens, Target, Kroger branded stores are a few. You can also order this card from Amazon.

Masterpieces Puzzle Company Extends Wizard of Oz Line
As if we weren't blown away by the releases at Toy Fair, Masterpieces will be adding more to the Oz line including a Barnes and Noble exclusive!!!!!! Press release below:
MasterPieces Inc. will transport you from your living room to the Yellow Brick Road with a new line of The Wizard of Oz themed puzzles and games done in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products.
Led by the new MasterPieces' The Wizard of Oz Emerald City-Opoly (MSRP $29.99 for ages 8 and up), the classic story of The Wizard of Oz is played out in a fun new opoly-style board game.
David Rolls, President of MasterPieces, said, "It's a pleasure to be working with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and to represent the iconic film and characters from The Wizard of Oz. Our new products use the images and likenesses of the characters and scenes from the movie in an engaging and entertaining way for all to enjoy in fun game and puzzle formats."
In The Wizard of Oz Emerald City-Opoly players will appreciate MasterPieces intricately detailed six pewter playing pieces, including Ruby Slippers™, as well as fun facts, movie moments, and character quotes on the back of each property card, as they make their way along the YELLOW BRICK ROAD™ board on an EMERALD CITY™ adventure. In the game, players can collect favorite characters, including SCARECROW™, TIN MAN™, COWARDLY LION™, and many others, while trying to avoid the castle of the WICKED WITCH™ and her field of poppies, as they prepare to meet the famous WIZARD OF OZ™ and discover THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME™ to win the game.
The new Emerald City-Opoly is joined by MasterPieces The Wizard of Oz puzzles that include the company's award-winning (Dr. Toy 2016) panoramic style puzzle scape and two of MasterPieces specially designed book box packaged products.
The panoramic style puzzle in The Wizard of Oz line is Emerald City (MSRP $15.99), a 1,000-piece landscape oriented (19" x 27') vividly colored collage of famous scenes from the movie.
The book box Journey to Oz and Emerald City (MSRP $15.99 each) are 1,000-piece puzzles made of recycled materials that arrive inside keepsake boxes with a magnetic closure. With a full page of the entire image located on the inside flap of the box to help guide any puzzle maker, the enchanting puzzles ignite the imagination and are reminders that dreams do come true. The book boxes are attractive storage that can be displayed on bookshelves and decorative room décor.
Due to the extremely high interest and early sales of the MasterPieces The Wizard of Oz products, which currently includes an exclusive puzzle image for Barnes & Noble bookstores, the company plans to expand the line and introduce even more puzzles this summer and fall.

Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz Cartoon headed to WB Subscription Service Boomerang
Latest original content from Warner Bros. Animation – Dorothy & the Wizard of Oz and all-new Wacky Races – to make international debut on Boomerang linear channel from June 2017
Following the recent announcement of a stand-alone US Boomerang premium subscription streaming service, Turner International has today revealed details of two highly-anticipated WB Animation original new series, Dorothy & the Wizard of Oz and Wacky Races. The two series will join the line-up of classic and contemporary animation for the company’s second flagship international kids channel Boomerang from June 2017. In the US, they will exclusively be shown on the US streaming subscription service.
Dorothy & the Wizard of Oz is an uplifting comedic fantasy series based on the classic L. Frank Baum book series, and set soon after Dorothy and her friends have defeated the Wicked Witch of the West. Following the original story, Queen Ozma has appointed Dorothy the Princess of Emerald City and, practically born for the role, Dorothy tackles her royal duties with enthusiasm, bravery and farm girl feistiness.
But it’s also a whole lot of responsibility, because Oz is pretty chaotic. There are Witches, Wizards, Munchkins, Flying Monkeys and a whole menagerie of mystical creatures. More often than not, magic falls into the wrong hands and that’s where Dorothy comes in! As Princess of Emerald City, Dorothy feels responsible to rein in the chaos. She loves to track down whichever magical person, place, or thing is causing mischief in Oz and put a stop to it. But it’s not always easy: make a mistake in Kansas and it’s usually not a big deal; make a mistake in Oz and a Wicked Witch or two come after you.
Patricia Hidalgo, Chief Content Officer, EMEA Kids & International Kids Strategy, Turner commented: “The introduction of these iconic shows and stories is very well timed, as we continue to build Boomerang as our second flagship to Cartoon Network and a strong kids and family brand across international markets. Dorothy and Wacky both perfectly capture the inherent values of Boomerang and we’re confident that new and existing fans of the channel will love this latest offering from our sister-company.”
Dorothy & the Wizard of Oz and Wacky Races join Boomerang’s portfolio of fun and funny, multi-generational shows, which include Warner Bros. Animation’s The Tom and Jerry Show, Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!, Bunnicula and Looney Tunes, new Boomerang Original production The Happos Family, as well as global and international acquisitions such as Grizzy and the Lemmings and Mr Bean: The Animated Series.
