First off, she is a great little figure. She has a nice hefty feel to her, unlike an original, which was kind of lightweight.
Her hair is a nice bright shade of blonde, the dress is very well made, and even the cape is cute.
However, she does have at least two problems.
One: The shoes are badly made. They feel weak and flimsy and don't stay on her feet! I'm switching them out for a pair of Barbie heels. Those do fit Mego girls.
Two: The hat does not fit either. I tried placing it on her head, and it kept popping off. There is simply too much hair for it to go onto the head. It should have been made wider to accommodate all that hair.
Those are the ONLY problems that I see in this figure. Her face paint isn't smudged or gloppy; her eyes face off to the side a la Dinah Mite, but that's a wee quibble. She looks as if she's rolling her eyes at her relatives antics, which is something that I can very easily see Samantha doing on the show.
All in all, I am very glad to have her. She will make an excellent addition to my very few NewMego collection.
