| | McFarlane Toys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | All toys came with a warning that they were not for individuals under age 17, and an alternative version of Dorothy was released in large quantities (such that it was the more common variant) with a black piece of cloth covering her upper chest to prevent people from viewing the leather belt crossing her bosom. |
 | | While McFarlane is known for producing many variations on their figures, particularly when re-releasing them, the rare variants are initially shipped along with the more common variant and are considered more valuable by collectors because of their relatively low quantity in relation to the common variant as well as the other figures in the series. |
 | | Thus, they emphasize themes of cannibalism (of Hansel and Gretel by the witch), animal mutilation (Riding Hood), and misogyny (Peter Pumpkin Eater), and have managed to do so in a way that has proven to be both provocative and marketable. |
