standard.co.uk

Toy company Mattel has apologized for a misprint on the packaging of Wicked dolls. The error directed customers to a pornography site instead of the official movie website. The dolls feature characters from the upcoming film adaptation of the popular musical, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. The misprinted URL leads to a site restricted to adults. Mattel stated it is taking immediate action to address the issue. Parents are advised that the incorrect website is not suitable for children and should discard or obscure the packaging.
