Fisher Price Massive Recall of 11million+ Toys and Gears

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

Announcements were made earlier today via CPSC that Fisher-Price / Mattel is doing yet another round of recall for toys and gears. The offending products range in hazard from choking hazards to laceration to genital bleeding.

For a complete product list, view Fisher-Price’s official letter here. You can also view the very long list of products that were recalled, past and current.

We would like to remind parents and grandparents to be highly selective and make informed decisions when purchasing products for their beloved little ones.
