Mattel Sued for $5M Over Doll Packaging Error
Mattel is facing a class-action lawsuit after mistakenly printing a pornographic website URL on the packaging of its 'Wicked' dolls, which were intended to promote the movie adaptation of the Broadway show 'Wicked'. The misprint led a minor to access explicit content, resulting in emotional distress for both the child and her mother, who filed the lawsuit seeking at least $5 million in damages. Mattel acknowledged the error, recalling the dolls on November 11 and advising consumers to discard or cover the incorrect link. Despite the recall, Mattel has not offered refunds to affected customers. The company expressed regret for the mistake and resumed sales with corrected packaging, while the lawsuit accuses Mattel of negligence and violating consumer protection laws.
