Mattel is facing a class action lawsuit after it accidentally included a link to a pornography website on some of its “Wicked” doll packaging, instead of the Universal movie’s landing page as intended.

According to one mother from South Carolina, the marketing material that listed Wicked.com instead of WickedMovie.com came as an “absolute shock” and left her minor daughter “horrified.”

“These scenes were hardcore, full-on nude pornographic images depicting actual intercourse,” read the class action lawsuit filed in California on Tuesday and obtained by TheWrap. “The products are adulterated, worthless and unfit for its intended and advertised age-appropriate audience.”

A recall on the toys in question was announced on Nov.
