First aid Made Jul 15, 2024, sent to the company Jul 18, 2024, published by CPSC Aug 2, 2024
The product, in the report: Miniverse make it mini toy macaroni & cheese craft kit. Contains a miniature blue Dutch oven style pot, miniature macaroni, yellow cheese resin, an herb sprinkle & a fork. Directions say to pour pasta & cheese resin into the pot, then stir it with the included fork to mix it all together. It says on the top of the instructions to then place it in the sun for 5-10 min to cure
14 year old child was handling already cured Miniverse Mac & cheese toy. (Toy mini pasta in blue bowl, covered in yellow resin / completed per product instructions)
The macaroni & cheese clump became dislodged from the bowl & my son picked it up (to place it back into the blue pot.)
The underside of the macaroni (the portion that was against the bowl lining) was still sticky & uncured. My son developed a blister rash on his finger where he touched it.
Upon inspection I realized the underside of the resin was unable to cure since there is no way for Uv light to penetrate through the opaque macaroni used. Therefore only the top layer of the resin was cured, while the bottom layer remained wet (this particular kit was completed months ago & cured under a UV light + was left out in the sun for several hours)
I am aware that unused miniverse products have been recalled, but even some of the competed cured products still carry the a risk, since many use either opaque resin or products.
We have checked our other completed miniverse toys & discovered several of the ones we have already completed (per the included instructions) still have uncured resin: the popcorn bowl (resin under opaque popcorn top layer cannot cure), the holiday chocolate drink set & the appliance coffee set (only the top layer of the opaque brown resin is cured), the macaroons (only outer edge of frosting was cured / resin in between opaque cookies remained uncured)
I am sure there are many other sets (that we dont have) that are flawed as well. The utilization of opaque products is poorly designed, since it renders a complete UV curing process impossible.
Due to this flawed design, I believe the current Miniverse recall (for only unused kits) is insufficient. Kits with opaque resin and/or opaque products (that inhibit the resin for curing throughly) should be included in the recall as well.
