This wonderful doll, a terrific addtion to the Mattel line of Wizard of Oz dolls began in 1995, was made available in general release on February 23, 2007. Finally, Barbie as The Wicked Witch of the West! Although not labeled as "Barbie", it most definitely is that lovely lady, albeit with green skin! While sure to increase in demand and value as time progresses, there should be some caution as to purchasing her on line immediately post release. Prices are ranging from $30.00 to $50.00 and more on ebay and I've seen it for $35.00 on Amazon. The problem is, she is selling off the shelf and online at WalMart for $24.93 as are all of the new Wizard of Oz dolls to date! Beware when you see listings stating "RARE" or "HARD TO FIND". Believe me, it isn't either rare or hard to find, at least not at the end of February, 2007. This situation is identical to the "Lucille Ball as Santa" doll from last fall.One needed only to go to your local Walmart, generally a superstore,in October of 2006 to find these so called rare and hard to find dolls on the shelf selling for the same price as the Wicked Witch is now, while online selling for twice that. Some sellers are either totally in the dark as to the availability of these items, or they are purposefully trying to scam the unsuspecting. So, when looking to add this wonderful Barbie as the Wicked Witch to your collection, do a bit of researching prior to parting with your dollars, but be sure not to miss this offering!
