I didn't see anyone else mention this yet, so I thought I would throw this out there.

I saw this in the halloween decoration section at Home Depot the other day and I thought to myself, that would sure make a nice companion sitting next to a WOZ pin.

It moves it's head and speaks and it even has a motion activated switch to trigger it, so I figure you could hook up the "activation switch" into the pinball machine and make it interactive. Such as hitting the witch target or maybe draining the ball.

It would also be a possibility to use it as a topper if you chop off just below the shoulders, the arms are movable, so you just have her arms/broom off to the side of the machine. Though this would require a good amount of ceiling space.

Why chop anything off...just stick the whole ting up there. Finally, something bigger than the Dark Knight topper!

i have a client that has one of these inside of a pedestal. If you came to MGC this past april it was there. I was designed as a "fortune teller" for the MGM Grand when they were still doing their Wizard of Oz theme. I heard it the other day when i was at Home Depot and i looked around because it is the EXACT same model that is inside his machine.
