“Mattel was made aware of a misprint on the packaging of the Mattel Wicked collection dolls, primarily sold in the U.S., which intended to direct consumers to the official WickedMovie.com landing page,” the company shared in a statement, via THR. “We deeply regret this unfortunate error and are taking immediate action to remedy this. Parents are advised that the misprinted, incorrect website is not appropriate for children. Consumers who already have the product are advised to discard the product packaging or obscure the link and may contact Mattel Customer Service for further information.”
The Mattel Wicked doll collection features multiple versions of Glinda and Elphaba dolls, as well as a Nessarose doll. Target has since removed the dolls from online purchase, with other retail stores being in the process of pulling the dolls from shelves.
