Mattel Steps Into Oz with New Wicked Dolls with Elphaba and Glinda 

Step into the magical world of Oz as the Broadway musical Wicked is coming to the big screen and Mattel has new dolls for the film 

Wicked is a musical Broadway adaptation of Gregory Maguire's iconic novel and helps reimagine the world of The Wizard of Oz. However, this version of the story features the perspective of the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba in Oz. This musical made its debut on the stage in 2003 and has become one of the most successful and beloved musicals of all time. One of the most significant parts of Wicked is the relationship between Elphaba and Glinda the Good Witch, and this relationship is about to come to life as Wicked is coming to theaters.

To help celebrate the return to Oz, Mattel has unveiled a brand new set of deluxe dolls featuring Elphaba and Glinda. Sending roughly 12 inches tall, these dolls feature 11 points of articulation in screen-accurate detail to both beloved characters from the land of Oz. The soon-to-be Wicked Witch is staying true to her name with her iconic witch hat, broom, and satchel. Glinda makes a pink statement with are pink ball ground, blonde hair, as well as a wand and tiara. These special Deluxe Wicked dolls are already up for pre-order (Glinda and Elphaba) for $39.99 each and are set for a late September 2024 release.
