Top 10 Recalled Toys
Toys are sometimes recalled for a reason, so here's a list about it. I know it's a cliche, but you might want to pay attention to this list. So let's get started!I saw one of these directly on the top of a kid's head first-hand. He looked like a Christmas tree ornament! Like a character from Gumby. It was as if he was impersonating the asterisk key. X marks the spot, and apparently, it was on the top of his head!
This is the most recalled due to trying to kill people. Now, Jarts are darts that were recalled because they have sharp metal tips which can injure people or, even worse, kill them.
This is another recalled dangerous toy for the kiddies. The reason why it's recalled is that when it flies, it can hurt kids. Despite the fact that toys are supposed to hit kids if they're not careful, it is still dangerous and it's recalled.
The toys that inspired the '90s cartoon were recalled by the CPSC. However, the cartoon on VHS was out of print and only sold on Amazon.
The same goes for the Talking Po Action Figure. I know that Po is from Kung Fu Panda, which is owned by Classic Media. The company, DreamWorks, recalled the toy after it was found to say, "please bite or kick my butt."
Based on comments people have posted, this toy sounds terrible! "Bite my butt" is something that not even the Bashment Movement gals would say! And they're always shaking their butts!
They're creepy enough without tearing your scalp off.
I forgot the rest, so I will use another top 10 list of recalled toys. The reason why this toy is recalled is that if it's swallowed, it could poison you and kill you. This toy was recalled.
I had these and thought they were disappointing. We got rid of them when we heard about the recall.
It hasn't been recalled, but it is notorious for being mistaken for food, as it has the colors, smells, and flavors similar to food. Therefore, it's a serious choking hazard and not completely safe for children.
One of them had a Barbie-based design, a Clueless-licensed Jeep design, and a Winx Club-based design. Those were also recalled.
That was recalled after it referenced the words of the lyrics to a certain song, "War" by Edwin Starr, in which the music goes like this: "WHO. WANTS. TO. DIE?" Unfortunately, Edwin Starr died while fighting for freedom.
It has magnets, and this toy was recalled. By the way, kids think it's candy, and they swallow it. It links up in their body and rips organs. Worst of all, they don't appear on X-rays and need surgery to remove.
The Quick Clik brand involved small dolls which were a choking hazard. They had magnetic clothing that snapped off violently. Yet, some kids hurt themselves purposefully, so they were recalled.
These looked colorful and fun, but contained flammable diesel hydrocarbons. Being a long, stretchy toy, it led to 410 incidents. 294 of those incidents involved strangulation and 116 others resulted from exposure to the hydrocarbons, which ignite when exposed to high temperatures. For all those reasons, they were finally called off.
Who knew that Thomas's fire engine could be an actual fire hazard?
Never play with anything that can cause cancer. This puts children at risk of cancer due to asbestos. Remember, don't judge a book by its cover (or crayons by their color).
They were said to have asbestos, but I still buy (and use) them!
It got recalled because it was found to be a fire hazard. I still have mine from when I was around 7 years old somewhere here, though.
This item is used in water, but it can fly and turn over, crushing the person riding the Kite Tube.
