Recalls Rain Or Shine Dolls WASHINGTON, DC -- In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Jak Pak, Inc., of Milwaukee, WI is voluntarily recalling 6,939 Rain or Shine Dolls, model JP #0137. When CPSC tested the dolls in accordance with regulations under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act, the doll’s movable arms separated.

It wears a removable plastic raincoat that fastens with velcro, removable shoes and socks, and underwear that is not removable. The doll’s head, arms and legs move at the main body joints. The label on the cardboard header reads in part: “Rain or Shine Doll . . . 1988 JAK PAK, INC.

Consumers are urged to take the doll away from young children immediately and return it to the store where purchased for a full refund of the purchase price. For more information about this recall, consumers may contact Jak Pak, Inc. at 1-800-526-0113. Neither the CPSC nor the company is aware of any injuries involving the dolls. This voluntary recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury.
