bostonherald.com

Mattel has apologized for a misprint on the packaging of its “Wicked” dolls, which mistakenly links to a pornographic website instead of the official movie site. The error was highlighted on social media over the weekend. As of Monday, some retailers, including Amazon and Target, showed the dolls as unavailable or out of stock. Mattel has not confirmed if it is removing the products from stores. The company advises customers who have purchased the dolls to discard the packaging or cover the link and to contact customer service for further assistance.
