They probably did this on purpose. It has to be approved by a lot of people and so many times they previously toy companies allow dodgy things on kid toys.
@@aurora6920 You probably can't name more than 4 or 5 times, at most, where the media reports something dodgy slipped through out of tens of thousands of toys. It's extremely rare.

I think it was on purpose the movie industry been trying to groom kids for years not surprised it a movie with Arian grande in it tbh . Because kids love her so much. It’s so messed up that people do this to children .a company wouldn’t be that slow to not put the fool website sounds like grooming to me and sounds like there more to this story .

@ I don’t think the parents check stuff on the boxes lol “Oooooh, I’m going to look on this website in really small print to see if there’s anything I can use to buy tickets for this movie”
Instead of discarding these boxes and contributing to the landfills couldn't they just put a sticker over it with the correct website. It's not like anyone goes to the website's listed on the boxes anyway

This is what happens when you try to sue smaller companies for selling dolls that look nothing like yours. Especially for trying to sue that little girl who sells dolls that look nothing like Barbie dolls. This is exactly how karma works.
Really enjoyed the insights in this video, it’s crazy how these mix-ups can happen. But honestly, I think there's a bigger issue with adult themes creeping into children's toys. It's wild to see how blurred the lines have become, and I wonder if this is just the tip of the iceberg. What do you all think?
Was it a typo when they were selling masks at Ariana Grande Sweetener Tour with the words world tour inverted 3 months before the Pendemic while doing a black corona on stage?
This reminded me when a lady accidentally typed create as ceate missed the r and she felt horrible, but no way to replace the youtube video. Gosh, it's strange they forgot to add movie beside wicked.
Im not so sure this was a mistake. Remember, all publicity is good publicity especially now when in this economy, few people want/have disposable income to spend in movie theaters
I doubt it will hurt the box office, if anything its probably going to boost the numbers because people will hear something like "Ariana Grande" and "Adult Film" A Sad world we live in
As a retail worker, unless they implemented this as a actual rule to do so (which I've never heard of) I doubt most of people I know that work in my store would care to, plus there's always the possibilities of scattered boxes throughout the store to miss, so it's better to just get every single one out as possible
@@shuichisaihope398 you amd your employees sound lazy. also you would have to gather the boxes anyways, so you have time to cross out the website. stores places new price stickers over old one all the time
@@kidrobot. If it was a rule, I would do so and I think most others would too. But since it's not an official rule, we can't even safely mess with the product as we could get in trouble
liability as well as product presentation...all a parent needs to say is "my kid used hand sanitiser to remove the ink and searched it up" or "my kid was able to still read it" followed by "i'm suing". but also the presentation perspective, customers will not be happy with a "tampered" packaging. it just makes a lot more sense for retailers to return them as damaged goods
As somebody who's excited to see this movie and is also a doll and toy collector, it's true, no, this will not affect or harm the box office, but it gave me a good laugh! 😂
Typo is when you miss a letter or two not a whole word, like MOVIE
wrong
Yeah clearly whoever’s job it was to put that on the box didn’t know what the actual site name was. Someone obv got fired. Probably many many people
They probably did this on purpose. It has to be approved by a lot of people and so many times they previously toy companies allow dodgy things on kid toys.

No one tested the link on the prototype? What a failure
They probable did...
I tested it, and it was..
Quality Control guy looked at the box and thought "yeah, that looks like it would be the website."
I'm sure they knew what they were doing bro
Public Relations: "We made a mistake"
Marketing Dept: "Suckers! They fell for it. Free publicity!"
The fact that this isn’t a bigger story is ALARMING
You’re better off saying that was your intention than saying you’re trying to look up dolls online.

These will sell for 10x value on eBay as a collector edition.
I was going to say both what you said and what the commenter said as well for it being an eBay collectors items.
@@gtech66not really since dozens have already gotten the dolls won’t be worth 10x in value more like 1x.
Especially kids don't read the back much. Even I'd never done so when I was a kid. 😅
@@AshParth560exactly 😂 they destroy the packaging
That doesn’t look like a mistake tbh, it looks like it was done on purpose, how can you miss a 5 letter word?
By not being paid enough to care.

Well that websites probably wondering why it’s traffic went up all a sudden 😂
WAS NOT A MISPRINT! THEY MEANT IT!
No they didn’t
@@Insert_Name_Here908 they’re public relations people said “oh it was a mistake, we’re sorry” What meatheads
Why
glad no kid ever actully goes to the websites after XD they just chuck the box out immediately.
but the dad and the husband would
@ I don’t think the parents check stuff on the boxes lol “Oooooh, I’m going to look on this website in really small print to see if there’s anything I can use to buy tickets for this movie”
Apparently there was a 12m visitor surge to the site 😅
Bc they reported on it
don't underestimate the curiosity of the people
I guess you could say that this is the WICKED moment ever! 💀
Instead of discarding these boxes and contributing to the landfills couldn't they just put a sticker over it with the correct website. It's not like anyone goes to the website's listed on the boxes anyway
I mean you can but most kids will probably peel them off.
Well it's on the packaging insert too ie manual.
It’s the principle
The FBI should check this guys computer
If i had a dollar for everytime mattel pulled toys off shelves id have 6 dollars
"Mistakenly"
"Deeply regrets misprint" Ha! Yeah right.
That site’s web traffic: 📈📈📈
Don't take your kids to the movie
THATY WAS INTENTIONAL....NOT A 'MISTAKE'
Absolutely thinking someone at Mattel did that on purpose.
They knew what they were doing.
Straight in our face they don’t even hide it anymore!
It’s not an accident or a misprint. Please this world is evil and they’re no longer hiding it.
Thank you for sharing the website with all of us 😉
I bet everyone is thinking someone at Mattel did this on purpose.
Someone at Mattel is going to be scapegoated and fired for this "mistake", lol
It shouldn’t be possible to make a mistake like this
😂 Yeah, that's what I was thinking
Man we can never really be sure... And I was reading everything on the box on my way home...
💯 this happens a lot and gets approved by many people before being made
The plot thickens
😏
This isn’t the only thing that’s thickening 😏
This was definitely on purpose. Leave children alone.
Is that what Q told you?
no it wasnt
get off conspiracy sites
@@baeZipsterget off if here.

@@baeZipster I'm sorry your father left you.
Do you remember Balenciaga? This was also on purpose... Leave the kids alone.
Original boxes gonna be worth a pretty penny! Lol
Nope, they'll be worthless because nobody will want to pay money for a kids toy that has an adult film website on it.
I guess I’m the nobody that thinks it was done on purpose!
Nobody pays attention to the websites anyway. They just have the cast list and trailer on them
"Accident"
This is what happens when you try to sue smaller companies for selling dolls that look nothing like yours. Especially for trying to sue that little girl who sells dolls that look nothing like Barbie dolls. This is exactly how karma works.
oh it’s definitely going to be the hottest toy this christmas…
Bow chicka wow wow
Prices on eBay already showing that it will be!
Don't forget saucy 😅
Well... That was so awkward on Mattel's part😳🤣

Meanwhile, Wicked website traffic is at an all-time high.
I feel sorry for whoever has to repackage all those toys.
Oh, now I know why those Men were buying those Wicked Dolls 💀💀💀
That wasn't a accident they wanted it there
No they didn’t
This box will be a collectors item lololol
*Guy in charge of package design had....ahem....other things on his mind....*
I guess Christmas will be a little saucy for the season.
😂😂😂 Mattel selling adult toys soon I guess
Was it a typo when they were selling masks at Ariana Grande Sweetener Tour with the words world tour inverted 3 months before the Pendemic while doing a black corona on stage?
Anyone here from Just2good?
"Mistakenly" yeah right.
My thoughts exactly. If it wasn't for it being in the news, i wouldn't have known they released wicked Mattel dolls
I’m a collector and got the deluxe elphaba and Glinda in box a week ago, im keeping them in those boxes. “please discard the packaging” yeah right! 😂
they're gonna be worth A LOT in the future!
Those might be worth a fortune some day.
Already doing numbers on eBay
I bet it's going to be worth a lot of moolah in the future, especially with that misprint.
Looks like the good witch is a bad witch now.
Glinda isn't bad.
This company need to criminally charged . That's why we want Matt Gates
Here we go, Now those dolls with the misprint will go for hundreds of dollars if they ever get out and I bet they will! It happens! 😂😂
Lets be real, someone who hated working for Mattel did it
Yea, accidentally on purpose…we see you Disney.
Wicked is from Universal, not Disney.
Disney has nothing to do with Wicked…
Weird. 15 thumbs up on a comment blaming Disney when it's not their movie or doll. Maybe just delete the comment?
Disney?
@@dannynguyen7870 Same garbage. That's like saying "It's not Burger King, it's McDonald's." It's all garbage full of poison.
then explain to us what’s the “ACTUAL” website then if not “WICKED”???????
There's probably additional things in the web address that they forgot to add which takes the consumer to the site for the dolls.
This reminded me when a lady accidentally typed create as ceate missed the r and she felt horrible, but no way to replace the youtube video.
Gosh, it's strange they forgot to add movie beside wicked.
To that person who screwed it up, congratulations, you just made a WICKED mistake. Suppose kids look up that website. 🤦🏻♀️
Then their parents will be…..WICKED mad 😂😂😂😂
Who cares if they do. U wont see anything.
What kid reads the fine print on a packaging box?
The ironic part is Wicked has rarely been considered for children. It's not inappropriate or anything, but it mostly has an adult audience anyway.
Oh yeah this is true there is an adult site called wicked LMAO😂😂😂😂😂
That’s some serious trolling…….
Even if a child managed to type that in their device, their device should be restricted anyway by their parents.
Tony Todd has passed away eveybody😭😭😭😭😭 he is the guy who has played Candyman
Intentional. Not accidental.
Take the dolls down!!! That’s ridiculous
Guess they never heard of Wicked Pictures.
Cough marketing stunt
It was a mistake
Omfg i work at walmart and we legit just had to throw away the cardboard features bc of a recall and i was confused... not anymore lollol
I like how some inside edition employee probably actually tried to visit the site at work and got the message at 0:53
I’m pretty sure that was the entire point
I was thinking the same thing. Lol
Yeah probably at home they would.
Some places aren’t pulling em they’re just covering it with a barcode
The kids seeing that: “WICKED”
Now I know why I’m not seeing these dolls for the movie coming out next Friday at my local Walmarts
Im not so sure this was a mistake. Remember, all publicity is good publicity especially now when in this economy, few people want/have disposable income to spend in movie theaters
Heh, Wicked lovers will scrape up the money. Trust me, I'm one of them.
I wonder if they will make a movie to the sequel of Wicked, which is Son of a Witch.
I bet they’re gonna end up on eBay for thousands of dollars because of that simple mistake on the box
Hundreds right now….thousands…maybe not!
That's one way to get more publicity
Actually it's good for marketing, now everyone is talking about it
This is NOT. To be taken lightly heartedly
CBs Morning Laughing is disgusting 🤢 little kids probably went to the site . A 🕳️ ‘s these pedo keep “accidentally “ leaving hints.
Wild... that is a wicked typo
No way this was accidental.
I doubt it will hurt the box office, if anything its probably going to boost the numbers because people will hear something like "Ariana Grande" and "Adult Film" A Sad world we live in
Yes they did it on purpose for sure! You can’t be that dumb especially in that job .
Why is she laughing at the beginning? This isn't funny.
Satan is at work in Hollywood again! WTF?
I have a comment on the official 1st movie trailer that says “ Don’t let the kids google search this”
I visited the website for Journalism investigation
Not disappointed
Quick search?
Lol 😂😂😂
Mattel better prepare for a lot of Wicked lawsuits!
All the “moms for liberty” people’s heads just exploded 😂👍
I went to the site and saw a movie that said stormy trumps all.
"Accidently"
Why don't store employees just take a black marker and cross it out on the packages?

Intention sabotage to make sure her doll don’t sell more than the others
Someone was definitely excited 😂
Gotta buy it as it will be worth a ton for the misprint in 50 years
OK, I’m guessing somebody had way too much much bailey’s Irish cream latte at Tim Hortons lol
I wanted to find out if this was real and opened a private tab. Typed wicked and got the this site is for adults only and started laughing
The same group of ppl own both genres, this was no "accident".
As somebody who's excited to see this movie and is also a doll and toy collector, it's true, no, this will not affect or harm the box office, but it gave me a good laugh! 😂
I searched this up for curiosity 💀😂
They just wanted people to see what happens to dolls when they grow up !
That's why you should do some research. If the domain you wanted to use already exists, buy it, wipe it clean, and build it.
