  1. No one hurt

    Made Nov 27, 2012, sent to the company Dec 19, 2012, published by CPSC Jan 7, 2013

  2. No one hurt

    Made Sep 13, 2012, sent to the company Sep 21, 2012, published by CPSC Oct 5, 2012

    The product, in the report: Megcos pull along musical turtle with shape sorter. IT is a hard yellow turtle with a detachable shape sorter. There are several small plastic shapes. It lights up and plays music when moved (there is no off switch). It has a 12 inch

    The pieces that go in the sorter are too small and are a choking hazard. My 9 month old put them in her mouth and they were small enough for her to get them lodged in her throat. I got the piece out just in time.

    Also, the handle comes apart by the plastic “bead” snapping in half. The plastic hinges could break off and cause cuts and also a choking hazard. It has broke in half already.

    This toy is made of hard plastic but if it gets dropped or something it doesn’t seem sturdy enough to make it through the fall.

    I think this product is unsafe for the age they advertise it for.

    The product, in the report: Megcos Pull-Along Musical Butterfly

    Megcos Pull-Along Musical Butterfly

    My 13 month old loves this toy, but it just isn’t durable, and when it breaks, the plastic shatters into dangerous pieces. Because it is a pull toy, it often flips over, or gets pulled off of the chair onto the floor. After about 2 weeks of moderate to light play the antennae broke off when the toy fell about 2 feet from the chair to the carpeted floor, and landed antennae side down. I can live without the antennae, but the problem is that they are made of hard plastic and attached internally to the head, so lots of sharp little chokeable pieces broke off and went all over the floor. Luckily I happened to be in the room at the time and was able to clean it all up before my daughter tried to eat the pieces. if only they would have made the antennae of flexible rubber instead of hard plastic it would be a really fun toy and more durable and safe.
