The BBC saw online instructions for the Glinda and Elphaba dolls on Mattel’s website, which listed the incorrect website under the logo of Universal Pictures, the film studio behind the films.
Mattel recommends the doll for children ages 4 and up.
Fans who purchased the doll posted the surprising news on social media.
“I purchased a singing Elphaba doll and upon inspection, the website printed directly above the barcode on the back of the Mattel box… is marked as an unaffiliated adult (not safe for work) 18+ website.” One person posted on Reddit.
“Is anyone else watching this!?”
In another post, a woman living in the US said: “Went to Target and Walmart today and Wicked Dolls had (porn) websites listed.”
