Summary
Mattel is pulling its "Wicked"-branded fashion dolls from retail shelves due to a misprint on the packaging that leads to an adult website instead of the official movie site. Retailers like Target, Walmart, and Amazon have removed the dolls from their online storefronts. The mishap could impact Mattel's revenue, but resellers are taking advantage of the situation by selling the dolls at higher prices on platforms like eBay.
