Rubie's Costume Wizard Of Oz B001N1CHF6

Rubie's Costume Wizard Of Oz 75th Anniversary Edition, Deluxe Winged Monkey, Gray, X-Large - 1.0 out of 5 stars from 3 customer reviews


Terrible costume for the price
Be warned! This costume is not how it appears on the images and requires some work and a lot of velcro to make it look presentable. The hat is sewn on backwards and not positioned in the correct place. The waistcoat is folded so tightly together the red print has rubbed off on the white areas. The wings and supports at the back do not work so they either flap over your shoulders or collapse behind you and the material used for the fur is not what it appears on the picture being a far cheaper material that is almost see-through. Not a good costume considering the price.


Not what I expected
The costume was wadded up in the bag like someone had returned it and didn't fold it back up nicely. The red color on the cape had bled into the white. On the hood the hat was sewn on backwards and exactly on top of the head not off to one side like in the picture. The wings wouldn't stay up the had to be pinned and bent and still didn't look right. Alot of money for a costume that had to be made over.


Great idea, poor execution...
I'm a huge fan of full-body costumes ready to go out of the bag, but this one just did not meet expectations. Body suit fits fine, but the wings are difficult to wear and do not easily fan out as the stock photo displays. The little hat on top also comes essentially folded together (stuffed some tissue in there to give it volume). Overall just does not quite come together like you want it to, and is on the more expensive side of costumes like these. Don't say we didn't warn you.
