History[]
After Dorothy returned home to Kansas in Return to Oz, the Tin Woodman had been turned into stone by the Nome King, but thankfully Dorothy defeats him and restores the Tin Woodman to his regular form. Among many other Ozians, he celebrates Dorothy's victory and witnesses the return of Oz's true ruler, Ozma. He also says goodbye to Dorothy when she departs but knows that she can return anytime if she wants.
