Hello everyone, my name is Nick Chopper, but many of you will know me as the Tin Woodsman of Oz. I am also the Emperor of the Winkies. I'm an easy going guy, who always puts friendship and love first. I have two beautiful wives by the name of Jade and Rachel, and I have the most wonderful friends :)
So, what else to say about me, huh? Well, there's a lot I could say, so I'll try and cut this short ;)
I was not always made of tin, for in the beginning I was a man of flesh, bone and blood and lived in the Munchkin Country of Oz. There I was, by trade, a woodchopper, and contributed my share to the comfort of the Oz people by chopping up the trees of the forest to make firewood, with which the women would cook their meals while the children warmed themselves about the fires.
Growing up as a boy was interesting, especially being taught by Wogglebug. I was created when my Mother (Marilyn) and Father (Charles) made love for the third time in their relationship. I grew in my mother's womb, often times grabbing my umbilical cord and swinging it like an axe. I was destined to be with an axe.
I got my first plastic axe at age 3. I would cut down these "trees" made of newspaper Father would make me. It was loads of fun! At age 7, I had my first real axe. I was really careful with it, and never used it for wrongdoing. At age 8 my parents were attacked. I used my axe to slay the beast, and thus rescued my parents from this ferocious monster.
I grew up next door to a wonderful young maiden called Anise Worthington. We played all the well-known child games together like 'hide and seek', 'blind man's buff' and all that. We had fun together. As we grew up, we didn't talk as often and slowly grew apart. By the time I was in my mid teenage years, I met another beautiful young maiden named Charlotte Elizabeth Yates. The first time I laid my eyes on her, my heart fluttered like a butterfly and I had experienced love for the first time.
Only about a year after we met, we got engaged. We were so happy together,and saw each other everyday.
Charlotte went away for a while to SpaceShip Earth, where tragedy occured and I never saw her again, at least, not until the future. My heart was broken, and feared I could never love again...

*VALUABLE LESSONS & FAVORITE QUOTES FROM THE TIN WOODMAN HIMSELF:*
♥ "Be contented with your fate, for discontent leads to unhappiness, and unhappiness in any form, is the greatest evil that can befall you."
♥ "If one does not ask for information he seldom recieves it; so I, for my part, make it a rule to answer any civil question that is asked me."
♥ "My head is quite empty but once I had brains, and a heart also; so having tried them both, I should much rather have a heart."
Woot, Scarecrow and Tin Man are just about to enter Mrs Yoop's Castle...
The above clip is from an Independant Animation Company called Hash Inc.
They are in the process of creating the first ever Tin Woodman of Oz full length movie (that I know of). So far, it is excellent! It is (obvisouly) based on L. Frank Baum's 'The Tin Woodman of Oz' book written in 1918...
♥From JD Rose, Author; "I have been an Oz fan ever since I can remember. The Tin Woodman of Oz has always been my favorite. When I learnt someone had actually took the time to create an animation of it, I was over the moon! I cannot wait until they have completed the whole film!" ♥
If you would like to see other clips along with pictures and further information about this company and their work, please visit their website at Hash Inc.
The above animation was created by Vancouver Film School student Percy Kiyabu through the VFS 3D Animation & Visual Effects program.
We love it!
