Is it the Dragonfly? The rest of her gear seems to have little to do with Wicca?
" Transform Barbie from an ordinary girl to one of the Charm Girls. Just put on Barbie's "enchanted" Charm Girl jacket and she's ready to mix up delicious potions that you can really drink. Barbie comes with costume, dragonfly, mixing pot, stand, spoon, stirrer, three bottles, book with a secret compartment, and two packets of "magic" powder (sugar-based mixes you mix with water). Barbie measures approximately 11.5 inches tall. " |

HMM...?
Because someone selling a "Secret Spells Barbie" used the word Wicca in the title to increase page views of their auction. Why would they use that word if it wasn't a true representation of Wicca????

2. This is obviously a cheap, stupid ripoff of the standard "witch who casts love spells" myth.

That's strange, me and my friend used to play with barbies a lot. It turns out they're flamable in a wide variety of situations, and they burn very interestingly. I think we dissolved one in acid once too. |

(and a little scary!)
