Here’s the next GWP – 40562 Mystic Witch
Not long ago LEGO sent me a copy of the October gift with purchase set – 40562 Mystic Witch, and it’s a beauty! It’ll be around from October 14 to 31st, perfect for all your Halloween goodness.
You’ll need to spend AU $165 / US $100 on LEGO’s online store and if you spend those hard earned pennies between October 14th and 16th, you’ll get the Double VIP Points deal as well.
When I got it in the mail I thought it was a regular set, as it’s a Creator 3-in-1, but it’s definitely a GWP. Weighing in at 257 pieces, it’s a good deal! There’s the eponymous Mystic Witch, plus a cat or a dragon as alternative builds, and it’s chock full of purple elements.
Cat
It’s an odd looking cat (being purple), and the legs and head don’t have a great deal of poseability, however there’s enough to tilt the head forward and angle the legs out a little. the hat carries across all three builds. Being an alternate build, it doesn’t have to be as spot on, but it’s a fun one either way.
Dragon
This one is a beauty. It’s goofy looking, and the green belly is a real eye catcher. Like the other builds there’s not a great deal of detail at the back, but the wings and tiny arms are hilarious. It makes use of the curved plates used in the witch’s arms as a tail to good effect.
Witch
The front of the witch is excellent, and the almost tattered dress is wonderful. What’s weird about this one is the hands. They’re way too small. There’s ball joints in the wrists and shoulders, a turntable in the waist and a click hinge in the neck so there’s some limited poseability. It’s a shame the green skin doesn’t translate to the back and sides of the head, but the rest is pretty good. That broom is superb – the only thing I’d suggest is change the colour of the bush to a brown or dark tan, but it’s a great build. The back is exposed undersides of plates which is a shame. It’s also a pity that the pumpkin has little slivers of white showing through.
For a free gift with purchase, it’s well worth getting, regardless of the nitpicking. I’d jump on this one.
A special thank you to LEGO for sending me a copy to review. All thoughts on this set are my own and are not influenced in any way, shape or form. The provision of sets for review does not guarantee a favourable review.

Reviews for "Sipping on Black Excellence: Exploring the World of Black Girl Magic Wineries"
1. John - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with my visit to Black Girl Magic Winery. The atmosphere at the winery was lackluster and uninviting. The service was extremely slow, and it seemed like the staff was not knowledgeable about the wines they were serving. In addition, I found the wines to be average at best. Overall, it was a forgettable experience and I would not recommend this winery to others.
2. Sarah - 3/5 stars - I had high hopes for Black Girl Magic Winery, but unfortunately, it didn't quite meet my expectations. The selection of wines was limited, and the tasting options were not varied enough for my liking. The staff was friendly, but their attention was divided, leading to long wait times. The ambiance was also not as cozy and intimate as I had hoped for. While it wasn't a terrible experience, there are definitely better wineries in the area to check out.
3. Michael - 2/5 stars - I visited Black Girl Magic Winery with a group of friends, and we were all rather disappointed. The prices for the wine tastings were quite steep, especially considering the quality of the wines. We found them to be rather generic and unmemorable. The service was also lacking; we had to flag down a server multiple times just to get our glasses refilled. Overall, it felt like the winery was more focused on their branding than actually delivering a top-notch wine experience. I wouldn't go back.
