The web address listed on the boxed dolls is wicked.com, instead of wickedmovie.com.
- I hope wicked.com capitalizes on this moment by releasing traffic data
  
  Or releasing wicked porn
  
  These are toys for kids. I think any attempt to capitalize on this could be a bad move legally.
- Thanks for saving the effort!
- Embarrassing to live in a society so puritanical news articles have to dance around this.
Luckily it's one of the more legit portals but man someone is fucking fiiiirrreeeedd.
Fans of Mattel or fans of the porn site...
- Those don't need to be mutually exclusive
  
  Action figure in one hand.....
If you go to the site you can’t see anything but the join page with no visible adult content. I wonder if it was always like that or they temporarily set it like that.
- I got an "Over 18?" page followed by adult content (though you have to scroll a little to see anything really explicit)
And we're just ignoring how this story was broken wide open by the BBC? I bet wicked.com won't.
