The dolls are currently still in the backroom at Target. We are waiting until we get a notification on what to do with them. I want this one along with the boy. They both have redress potential.
I just ordered this doll from Amazon & I was happy they put a sticker over that website. More importantly - this doll is a move forward for disability visibility ❤
I work at Khols and they just pulled it off the shelf’s they said they are going to destroy it ,but I seen other Khols and other companies just scratch off the website or put a sticker top of it and what a shame cuz I was just missing two dolls of Glinda the singing one and the school outfit and me personally the dolls that have the back part like that I toss the box away cuz there no way of keeping like that
It's really easy for this stuff to happen tbh. Anybody working in an office of 50 people or over will see this, let alone in a corporation that employs hundreds and even thousands. Basically, the more humans you have involved in a project, the more mistakes happen because the more people assume somebody else in the group is on top of it. The designer likely put this in as a placeholder assuming that the copy people were on top of getting the correct copy, and this would have been one packaging set out of 50 different designs they needed to work on that week. The copy people assumed what they were handed from marketing was also correct and they had 1000 copy blocks to write that week. And so on and so forth. When a chain has a lot of links, that's more chances and more opportunities for a link to break, and they DO break. It's a classic breakdown of communication, and in this case the error looked "correct enough" that nobody noticed it on first glance. I'm a graphic designer, and I'm sorry to say that I've sent a book to print WITHOUT THE SPINE before. Myself and the proofer and the editor were each too tired, too frazzled, and too tied up between multiple projects to notice what is actually an extremely glaring issue. It happens. Just know the poor graphic designer, being at the bottom rung of this particular situation, is going to be having a miserable time right now. :( They're the easiest person to pin the blame on, even though they're not actually responsible for the content of the copy they're provided.
I have been binging the “what is this feeling” song that was leaked early on tik tok with the video and, OMG ITS SO GOOD!!! I have listened to it more times then I can count todayyyyy ugh Ariana really was meant for this role her facial expressions, body language, her voice ugh it’s so perfect for Glinda!!! THE CHOREO!?!?! When all the other students are walking behind Glinda with books!?!?! THE CORDINATION TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT LIKE WHAT!?!?
I found her on Amazon a few days ago along with Deluxe Elphaba and Glinda! Now i just need Madame Morrible, Fiyero, and the Shiz dolls :) Still weird to me they didn’t make a Wizard doll. Probably for Part 2!
Y'all I just realized that all the wicked stuff is still stocked here in Germany. They just drew over the Website link with a black marker lol. But they did it quite neatly, I was looking for the link for so long, expecting that it would still be visible
But you had the same thought that I did! It would take two seconds to just take a black sharpie and cross it out and it’d be like it was never there 😅 hurry up and fix this we want our dolls 😢
The people that pointed it out really ruined it for everybody lmao

Ugh that’s so wasteful
Hey Angel!! I hope you're doing well! Love your doll reviews!
Honestly, just scratch the original Text off and put a sticker on it. Lets not get wasteful
Absolutely 😢

I have all dolls except the Walmart exclusive and I never even looked at the back of the box.
I just hope they fix Ari's eyebrows if they re-release them. 😂

They are just putting a sticker over it 😂
I want to give her striped socks to match the Wizard of Oz movie
