TL;DR

Mattel has apologized for a misprint on its "Wicked Fashion Dolls" packaging that mistakenly directed customers to a pornographic website instead of the intended official movie site. The error, which affected dolls themed after the upcoming "Wicked" film, has led to the dolls being pulled from major retailers and some being resold online at inflated prices. Mattel is taking steps to correct the issue and advises consumers to discard or obscure the incorrect link on the packaging.
