details

• Some prints omit the opening verses of the song "Toyland" ("When you've grown up, my dears", etc.), and begin the song with the main chorus ("Toyland, Toyland," etc.). Other prints omit Mother Goose's vocal of the song entirely, and have only the chorus singing the song.
  
  
• Two colorized versions exist. The first was produced in 1991, and the second one was produced in 2006, using the latest colorization technology. The new colorized version is planned for release by Legend Films.
  
  
• Although the film was fully restored in the 1990s, the title remained "March of the Wooden Soldiers", and did not revert to the original 1934 title, "Babes in Toyland" until the 2006 DVD release by Legend Films (advertised as "March of the Wooden Soldiers" but containing the original title and credits on the film itself).
  
  
• Film was cut by six minutes after original premiere. The cut footage from this film, containing the entire "Go To Sleep" sequence, has recently been restored and the movie has been seen on cable TV at its full length of 78 minutes.
