Mattel has apologized for a misprint on the packaging of its “Wicked” movie-themed dolls, which mistakenly links to a pornographic website instead of the official movie site. The error was highlighted on social media over the weekend. The dolls, featuring characters from the upcoming film, are primarily sold in the U.S. Mattel is taking steps to address the issue but has not confirmed if it will remove unsold products from stores. Consumers who have purchased the dolls are advised to discard the packaging or cover the link and can contact Mattel for further information. The first part of the “Wicked” movie is set to be released on November 22.
