One of the earliest character dispensers, witch can be found in numerous head and color variations. Witch A and B are very similar in appearance, however revision B has slightly larger hat. Revision B is considered to be very rare.
Three-piece witch is so called because the hat and hair are three separate pieces. This version in particular is available in numerous different color combinations. It was replaced by Witch C which shares the same basic head design, but is made from a single piece of plastic. Version C is also available in a number of different head color variations, some of which were sold by mail-order as "misfit" colors.
