Samantha from "Bewitched" and The Wicked Witch from "The Wizard of Oz" - Mego Corporation (2018) |
This October, two Mego witches can be found haunting the aisles of local Target stores. One is The Wicked Witch of the West, which is a recreation of the figure Mego first produced in 1975. It's part of a "Wizard of Oz" 2 pack that also comes with Dorothy. The other witch is Samantha from the classic 1960s TV show "Bewitched."

Samantha |
The two figures share the same witch hat, but are otherwise unique. Samantha comes with a cartoon cat that Bewitched fans will recognize from the animated opening credits of the TV show. The Wicked Witch comes with her broom.

Wizard of Oz 2-Pack |
I'm not really that big of a Bewitched or Wizard of Oz fan. I mean, I liked them both when I was a kid, but not enough to want to collect merchandise from the properties as an adult. That being said, I
am a fan of Mego Monsters, especially around Halloween, so I couldn't resist adding two new witches to my collection.

The Wizard of Oz Figures Come With a Diorama Backdrop |
Way back in grade school, one of my friend's little sisters had all the Oz Mego stuff, the dolls and the Wizard playset. I still thought it was pretty cool back then.
