Mattel has apologized for a misprint on the packaging of its "Wicked" movie-themed dolls, which mistakenly linked to a pornographic website instead of the official movie site. The error was highlighted on social media over the weekend. The company stated it is taking immediate action to address the issue. Some retailers, including Amazon and Target, have reportedly removed the dolls from their listings. Mattel advises customers who have purchased the dolls to discard the packaging or cover the link. The dolls are part of a collection related to the upcoming film adaptation of the Broadway musical "Wicked."
