Which ones are recalled?

The recalled toys are battery-operated, multi-colored toy jet airplanes measuring about 9 inches in length and width. A clear plastic cover over the cockpit exposes a pilot with his hand on the controls. A label on the jet’s wings reads “FALON” (Falcon misspelled). The toy jet plays music and some of the lights flash off and on as the jet propels itself by two small front wheels. “C.D.X. Toys CDL-22338D” and “Made in China” are embossed on a label on the battery compartment lid.

About 1,500 units, as CPSC gives them.
