Wait, Texas' ban on porn doesn't stop this? I can go to the website and it does not ask me to verify my age with a government ID photo.

From here:

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/wicked-dolls-mattel-mistakenly-link-to-adult-porn-site-1236058013/

Appears to be an innocent mistake:

"The web address listed on the boxed dolls is wicked.com, instead of wickedmovie.com."

For some reason this reminds me of the infamous vibrating Nimbus 2000 toy and the resulting (and hilarious) sexual scandal it caused.

I remember when I first heard about it at the time. I went out to the Amazon reviews page for that toy, and there were quite a few clueless, naive reviews that had me pretty much crying with laughter. After a few weeks Amazon removed so the best ones. I'm glad some of them got captured for posterity.

They have to be playing dumb, surely. Especially the 17-year-old one…

Can't help but notice that they emphasized the smirk on the head sculpt for the Elphaba doll. Does that not deserve a Twitter tirade regarding disrespect from Ms. Erivo?
