Children’s Wicked-themed dolls of Elphaba and Glinda have been put for sale with URLs linking to an NSFW website printed at the back of their boxes. Mattel, the company behind the production of the naughty print, has since said the packaging had been “misprinted” and advised parents to “discard” the packaging.
Mattel has been selling dolls of characters from the movie Wicked based on the Broadway musical – mainly selling action figures of the two main witches, Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande), TMZ reported on Monday (November 11).
Over the weekend, photographs of the unfortunate mistake have been circulating online, as a Redditor posted an example on Saturday (November 9).
