The new DVD set for The Wizard of OZ just came out! I do love The Wizard of OZ. Just ask Brad who went all over town one year to find the Wizard of OZ trivia game in the collectable tin. I am sure that he will tell you all about my passion for OZ. He got the best hubby ever prize that year because he even played the game with me. Lets just say that I won! Anyway, we have not watched the remasterd DVD and all the extras yet but I love the fun stuff that they threw in the case. There are copies of advertisements, tickets, fascinating facts etc. Just way to many interesting facts to be found for a WOOZ nerd like me. For example did you know that for the poppy field scene they had to make 40,000 poppies and then ten men spent a week placing each one on the two acre set. How cool is that? They could not use real poppies because the lights were too hot. The lion’s costume was made from real lion skins and weighed 50 pounds. No wonder it looked so cool! The wicked witch’s nose was made from metal. Weird! I will not keep sharing all the new facts that I have learned but there are many cool facts listed throughout the little books and it is a definitely a fun buy, especially for all the WOOZ nerds out there.
