Continuity mistake: When Dorothy unties the red key from Mombi's wrist, while she is asleep, Mombi then snores and rolls over, and the red key lays on the bed. The position of the black ribbons attached to the key repeatedly changes between subsequent shots. (00:51:20)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: After Ozma unstraps Dorothy from the pedestal, they run from the room, leaving both of the double swing-doors wide open. In the next shot of Dorothy and Ozma running down the hallway though, the left door is closed. (00:18:40)

Hamster

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.

Trivia: Since the ruby slippers were created for the 1939 Wizard of Oz movie (the book used silver shoes instead), they are still protected by copyright. Disney had to pay MGM a huge sum of money for the rights to use them in Return to Oz, where they take the place of the magic belt in the books.
