According to the complaint, a young girl was exposed to hardcore pornographic ads after visiting the 'Wicked.com' website listed on the doll's packaging, a grave lapse that has parents outraged.
Mattel has advised consumers to discard the packaging or obscure the incorrect website link, while also offering customer service support, but the $5M lawsuit seeks damages for those who already purchased the misprinted dolls.
