A South Carolina mother has filed a class action lawsuit against Mattel for emotional distress after her daughter was exposed to pornographic content via a mistake on the packaging of a Wicked doll.
The lawsuit alleges that the mother and her daughter were horrified after the minor accessed hardcore pornographic images due to an incorrect URL printed on the doll's packaging, which should have linked to the official Wicked movie site.
Mattel's product packaging incorrectly displayed an adult website URL instead of the intended film site, leading to an apology from the company and the recall of the Wicked dolls from retailers.
The plaintiff reports that despite the emotional trauma caused, Mattel has not offered refunds related to the questionable product link, thus prompting claims for damages.
