The Magic of Oz

Whimsies

Evil creatures with large bodies and tiny heads who will become allies of the Nome King.

First named in The Emerald City of Oz, ch. 4

I'll start this very afternoon to visit the Chief of the Whimsies.

As the books describe them

They had large, strong bodies, but heads so small that they were no bigger than door-knobs. Of course, such tiny heads could not contain any great amount of brains, and the Whimsies were so ashamed of their personal appearance and lack of commonsense that they wore big heads made of pasteboard, which they fastened over their own little heads.
