Probably the packaging was made quickly and not double checked. I rarely ever the back of packages, so I don't know how this mistake was even caught in th first place honestly. All the toys I've bought in the past 10 years could have a link to a RickRoll and I'd be none the wiser.

I want one to do a repaint/reroot since the green skin is unique, I was waiting for them to go on deep discount after xmas since they obviously made way too many. Hopefully they will just do stickers.

The answer is AI anon. Mattel switched to AI design for some of their packaging this year.

My point is that if you told the AI "write the text for the back of the box" it would not write www.wicked.com because it would know the correct website.

I've seen alot of normies/scalpers licking their collective lips over the 'potential' value of these things, but they were on sale long enough so people bought them in good amounts. Too many have gotten out for this to be an actual valuable item. eBay has thousands of result already and the 'misprint' isn't even that major of a flaw (especially if they eventually secure the domain rights, which they said they plan on). I say it's all just nonsense and dumb asses are gonna have closets full of these things trying to offload them while the interest is around, but failing miserably to recoup any costs. A fool and his money are soon parted I suppose.

What makes you think AI would know the proper website? AI just makes up what it thinks you want to hear from its training data and the prompt. There is no guarantee it was trained on what the proper website for the movie would be as the training is based on scraping the existing internet, not the internet after the movie comes out.

Crappy QC. Which is clearly obvious even for big company's with major franchise like Hasbro/Marvel Legends, DC/Netflix/Disney/McFarlane, NECA, etc.

Also porn is a major issue especially for toys that may go to be sold worldwide. When studios and companies have to please people in very conservative countries like Muslim ones, all this crap matters.

I was SO close in getting the basic Elphaba (Wicked Witch of the West) doll from this film earlier this afternoon. I got stopped at Target and Barnes and Noble by the ladies at the registers that it and the deluxe $39.99 Elphaba and Glinda couldn't be purchased. Damn Mattel for this silly recall!! If more people tossed away the packaging, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Does anyone else have the tinfoil hat theory this is a marketing trick? How many of you remember hearing about these dolls being to sale until this was revealed? On the good side, probably whoever came with this idea is planning on exploiting scalpers who believe this will be collectors item.

There are cheaper ways to market a movie. Seems likely it's just the regular competency crisis.
