Toy maker Mattel is apologizing after sending out a run of Wicked branded toys with a link to a porn website on the box.


Toys bearing the likeness of Glinda the Good Witch are out there advertising a hard core porn website.

Mattel printed the URL for the wrong website on the boxes of singing dolls meant for enraptured children and adult collectors. Retailers such as Target and Walmart have already delisted the toy from their online databases, but pictures of them still exist on eBay. It’s the kind of thing that happens when a company isn’t doing its due diligence and triple-checking its work before sending it to the consumer.
