Oswald the Lucky Rabbit In 2012, the newly-redesigned Buena Vista Street at Disney California Adventure included Oswald's Filling Station, a merchandise stand themed as a gas station operated by Oswald. The shop sells "Oswald Ears" hats (a similar style to the popular Mickey Mouse Club caps), as well as shirts, plush toys and mugs. In 2014, a costumed Oswald character began making appearances in the area near the shop. Using Ub Iwerk's sketchbook drawings in 2012, archivists recreated a scene from an Oswald cartoon, "Harem Scarem". In 1995, Oswald briefly appeared in "Férias Frustradas do Pica-Pau", a Woody Woodpecker video game released for the
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit together with other anthropomorphized toys. These included Toby Bear, Maggie Lou the wooden doll, Hi-Yah Wahoo the turtle-faced Indian, and Woody Woodpecker—depicted as a mechanical doll filled with nuts and bolts (hence his "nutty" behavior). In 1944, with the addition of writer John Stanley, the stuffed animal motif was dropped, as were Maggie Lou, Woody, and Wahoo. Oswald and Toby became flesh and blood characters living as roommates in "Lantzville". Initially drawn by Dan Gormley, the series was later drawn by the likes of Dan Noonan and Lloyd White. In 1948, Toby adopted two orphan rabbits for Oswald to raise.
