Question by Hilda C: Toy recall for September 4 2007?

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in co-operation with Mattel Inc., announced late Tuesday that it is recalling about 675,000 Chinese-made toys that have excessive amounts of lead paint.

The voluntary recall covers units of various Barbie accessory toys that were manufactured between Sept. 30, 2006, and Aug. 20, 2007.

“Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed,” said the agency’s website.

As well, 8,900 different toys involving Big Big World 6-in-I Bongo Band toys from the company’s Fisher-Price brand were recalled. Those products were sold nationwide from July 2007 through August 2007.

Well Jimmy Crack Corn! Come on now, they don’t check these toys before they distribute? We should stop importing with them (China).
