If you loved
Disney's new
Oz The Great and Powerful, then you'll enjoy seeing these original props from the fantasy movie on display at the
El Capitan Theatre in
Hollywood on March 14, 2013.
Actual props from Oz The Great and Powerful on display
Included in the exhibit were props from
Kansas at the start of the movie and from over the rainbow in the
Land of Oz.

One of the sweetest additions to the
Oz mythos in this movie was the
'China Girl' character who is discovered by
James Franco's 'Oz' and his sidekick,
'Finley' the flying monkey, after her town of teapot and crockery houses has been decimated by the
Wicked Witch's flying baboons.
China Girl character prop from Oz The Great and Powerful
As her character is digitally created by
CGI special effects, I assume that this doll prop is used for placement in the scenes and for the actors to be able to act with.
Knuck's mask and a potion bottle from Oz The Great and Powerful
In an homage to the original
Wizard of Oz film,
James Franco bestows some gifts on his friends and allies at the end of the movie. To the grumpy munchkin city herald
'Knuck' he gives this smile mask, whilst I believe the sinister looking potion bottle is used by
'Evanora' in the film.

Oz and
Glinda use this map of
Oz to hatch their plan to retake
The Emerald City from the wicked sisters.

in Oz The Great and Powerful
Also on display were props from
James Franco's circus performing days in
Kansas, one of many music boxes he gives to his female admirers, the glue used to repair
China Girl, the camping-tool knife he gives to the
'Master Tinker' at the end of the movie, samples of the treasure he is offered to save
Oz from the
'Wicked Witch', plus his signature top hat.
Fireworks machine from Oz The Great and Powerful
Finally on display was this fun fireworks machine created by the
Tinkers and used by
Oz and his allies as part of his grand illusion to defeat the witches at the end of the movie.
If you like all these cool props, then you'll probably also love these original
Wicked Witch,
Glinda and
Evanora costumes from Oz The Great and Powerful on display.
