Visible crew/equipment: In shots of Dorothy and Ozma running away from the doctor's clinic, there is a noticeable outline of kneepads under their dresses, and as Ozma slips down the muddy bank, and into the river, her dress momentarily rides up, revealing it quickly.

Continuity mistake: When the group lands on The Nome King's mountain, we see Tik Tok land with his body buried in the snow. Then in the next shot he is suddenly less buried than he was in the first shot. Then in the next shot he isn't even buried, and is just laying on a rock.

Continuity mistake: When Dorothy and Billina are in the crate surrounded by water, then water begins to soak up, so that it gets very shallow. In the next shot over Dorothy's shoulder the water is suddenly more deep and rippling again. Also, the sand, once it dries up, goes from damp to drier.

Mombi III: Not beautiful you understand, but you have a certain prettiness, different from my other heads. I believe I'll lock you in the tower for a few years until your head is ready. And then I'll take it.
Dorothy: I believe you will NOT!

Trivia: Here are some interesting tidbits about where some of the aspects of the movie came from, which is a compilation of the books following the first. Jack Pumpkinhead, the Powder of Life, the Gump, Mombi, Ozma (Tip) and the escape off the top of the roof all come from 'The Marvelous Land of Oz'. The multiple heads angle, the Gnome King's Nick-Nack game, the chicken coop, Billina, and Tik-Tok all come from 'Ozma of Oz'. The tunnel under the Deadly Desert that Mombi uses to get to the Gnome King seems to come from 'The Emerald City Of Oz'.
