Unpopular: Mattel Faces Lawsuit Over Wicked Toy Typo

Eric Liebowitz/NBC via AP

Recently, we told you how Mattel made a rather unfortunate mistake on the packaging for its 'Wicked' dolls. Namely, the website listed on the box was not directing curious users to the movie's page but to an adult site.

Yikes.

Now one mom is suing the toy giant for the 'distress' this mistake caused her and her daughter:

More from Variety:

Mattel is being sued for mistakenly printing the URL for a pornographic site on the packaging for special-edition “Wicked” dolls.

According to court documents, a South Carolina resident is launching a class action lawsuit after purchasing the toy for her young daughter, who visited the X-rated website that had “nothing to do with the ‘Wicked’ doll.” The toy company mistakenly listed a similarly-titled website for the adult-entertainment site Wicked Pictures, rather than the official page for the Universal Pictures film, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. The plaintiff alleges that Mattel didn’t offer a refund and believes she and her child suffered “emotional distress” from the misprint.

Look, is it less than ideal? Yes.

Is this worth a lawsuit?

No.

This writer's cynical side would not be surprised.

Yeah, this doesn't pass the smell test.

Oh, look.

This'll be the defense's Exhibit A.

And if the kid clicked without parental supervision, why weren't the parents supervising this?

Exactly as we said above.

Heh.

We're sure Mattel's lawyers will be all over this.

We are not at all surprised. 

People sue for everything and anything.
