We already got Wicked Witch Lulu, and Tin Man Amumu.

I'm thinking we could have Rumble piloting a scarecrow, maybe as part of a Harrowing skin.

Lion Rider Kled, maybe as part of the Beast Hunter skins.

Barrel of Monkeys Corki, as part of the toy skin line.

Dorthy could either be Teemo, where he places dogs that barks instead of mushrooms, or something as simple as just giving Rag Doll Poppy a new recall animation with a dog.

Why restrict it to Yordles only?

Cause 2 of the main 5 are already yordles.

no..... amumu isn't confirmed to be a yordle. That's just what you chose to believe. Aside from that "tin man amumu"? that's not a skin, we have sad robot amumu but he's not part of a skin line themed after the wizard of oz.

A lot of skins are part of unofficial skin lines.

Firefox Ahri, Explorer Ezreal, Chrome Rammus, Safari Caitlyn, formerly Opera Karthus were all part of the unofficial internet browser skin line. I am suggesting they all are part of different skin lines because it would be another unofficial skin line.

because those were intended as references to internet browsers. so it's technically a skinline. a discontinued one, not an unofficial one.

That is an interesting picture of Fiddlesticks, Blitzcrank, Annie and Rengar you have there.

Eh.. We have a sad robot or a little knight amumu. Those two skins dont really say tin man.

Ps. Amumu isnt confirmed yordle. Read his updated lore, it was very vague on what he actually is.

You can make a skin line with them all having different names and an individual identity for the skin. Like how Lumberjack Sion is part of the Red Riding hood skin line, or Explorer Ezreal is part of the internet browser skin line. or Definitely Not Blitzcrank is part of the April Fools skin line despite is being a Harrowing skin, or Headmistress Fiora being part of the Academy skins, etc.

Yes, however, the theme of neither of the Amumu skins fit that theme. One is a Robot and the other is a Knight who is referencing The Sword in the Stone (as you can see in the splash art). The Tin Man or correctly the Tin Woodman is a character that is built of metal parts (due to his horrific story of a cursed axe and losing his body).

Explorer Ezreal is part of the internet browser skin line

No, just no. That's a meme. It's not what he really is. Ezreal is dressed as an Explorer, exploring places. Ahri, was NEVER Firefox as it's FOXFIRE and is confirmed part of the Infernal theme now that they have the new Lore up on the PBE. Rammus is just a really bad old recolor placing him in metal amror. Safari Caitlyn is what she looks like dress out in the Safari.

Definitely Not Blitzcrank is part of the April Fools skin line despite is being a Harrowing skin

It was originally released during the Harrowing since it was the only one at the time but has since been reclassified as an April Fools skin. That's completely different.

The Tin Man is often portraited as a robot in adaptations of Wizard of Oz.

And yet people have gone out of their way to get all 5 of the "browser" skins.

It was originally released during the Harrowing since it was the only one at the time but has since been reclassified as an April Fools skin. That's completely different.

How? How is retrofitting a previous skin into a future skin line completely different from turning Sad Robot Amumu into a Tin Man skin?

None of the skins I suggested are part of a "Wizard of Oz" skin line. Wicked Lulu, Sad Robot Amumu, Harrowing Rumble, Beast Hunter Kled, Toy Corki, and Ragdoll Poppy.

In what adaptations? I've not seen anywhere he is a robot. He's a man that was cursed and lost his body, most stories revolve around him being a rusted man of metal in a field where a girl finds him and fixes him.

Yet, that "browser theme" is nothing more than a meme and there are only 4 (Cait, Ezreal, Rammus and Ahri).

They aren't though as you said right here but then said in another comment "Cause 2 of the main 5 are already yordles." So you're just contradicting what you said.

Well, there's the song by Incredible Moses Leroy called "Country Robot / A Letter To Dorothy"

There are episodes of Dr. Who and Star Trek where the robots are called Tin Men.

Several anime adaptations show Tin Man as a robot.
