Recalls from Spinmaster Toys

by

After last week’s recall of the AquaDots I heard there was another toy recalled from Spinmaster toys so I wanted to make sure it was one I didn’t have. Not to worry, I didn’t, but I thought ya’ll might or could end up with it on your child’s holiday wish list. So here is a quick list of their recalled products.

Aqua Dots Recall

Aqua Dots- Remember last week some children swallowed beads and the doctors discovered that the beads had a chemical that makes date rape drugs in them. Quickly these dots were being removed from consumer’s hands, those that were out there were asked to take them to get replacement beads or get a toy of equal value.

Marshmallow Fantasy Island Dream Zone- The 6 beads on this seems to be the big issue, they recommend that you tear off the string that has the beads on it. It’s basically for decoration anyways.

I noticed with the Aqua dots and Dream Zone it was mainly the beads, maybe they can make something that has a different type of item in it instead of the beads.

recalled air hogs

Helix Radio Controlled Micro Helicopter and the Air Hogs RC Skywinder Radio-Controlled Airplane - The battery compartment for both of these can overheat, which can cause someone to burn their hand.
