Make Your Elphie Fantasy A Semi-Reality With Talking Wicked Witch Of The West

I know we all harbor some sort of fantasy about being either Elphaba or Galinda. Don't lie, you kow you do. My boyfriend and I joke all the time about it, because I would totally be Elphie, with her politcal stance on freedom and moral righteousness, and he would be a perfect Galinda, being the social butterfly/fashionista that he is. We can't help it, it's just bred into us. Which brings me to this awesome Elphaba talking statue! (gotta love that transition! Man, I'm good at this!)

OK, so it's not actually the awesome Elphaba we've all come to know and love from Wicked. It's more representative of the original Wicked Witch of the West from Wizard of Oz. What's awesome about this is that it is motion sensitive, and oce trigered, it launches into the original Wicked Witch theme from the movie and Margaret Hamilton's (the original Wicked Witch, for those Friends of Dorothy that aren't really hip to …. Dorothy) voice screaming the iconic "I'll get you my pretty, and you're little dog too!" At 5'2", the statue is kind of imposing as well!

Now, I'm not sure what exactly this should be used for, other than showing it off to prove that you really are gay to your family. Personally, I would set it up in the doorway to my condo so if somebody tried to bust in, they'd be treated to my queeny version of a burglar alarm. That is, of course, assuming I'm willing to drop the $2500 the makers are asking for it, which for however much I love Wizard of Oz and Wicked, I'm just not willing to pay that much. Or you could just get the 17" version for $149.
