Mattel's got a "Wicked" big problem on its hands ... 'cause it added a URL to the back of its Elphaba and Glinda toys -- and, it turns out it's a very NSFW site.

The movie's intended web address was "https://t.co/Q2A56WOHul," but the packaging only had the word "wicked." pic.twitter.com/P8pDOh5Au2
On the back of the dolls, they put a URL to the website "www.wicked.com" ... in case people who purchase the toys want to buy more -- except, that's not the company's website. It's a porn site!
