  1. No one hurt

    Made Apr 15, 2013, sent to the company May 8, 2013, published by CPSC May 30, 2013

    The product, in the report: Playmate’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Nickelodeon Mutagen Ooze with Mini Turtle Figure. This product is aqua blue with a silver shimmer. The gooey substance is inside a clear cylinder with a small plastic turtle figure. The cylinder has grey end caps.

    My son received Playmate’s Nickelodeon Mutagen Ooze with Mini Turtle Figure for his 4th birthday on April 10, 2013. The next day we played with this product for about 45 minutes and washed our hands as directed afterwards. Later while eating, we both touched our lips and discovered the most vial poisonous taste I’ve ever experienced. My son started crying hysterically until I scrubbed his lips and hands several times to weaken the taste. I too scrubbed my hands and lips and I could not rid myself of this awful taste. I did have this ooze in my hands for about 30 minutes longer than my son so I assume this is why. The day after playing I woke up feeling ill and nauseated which lasted most of the day. I’m not sure if this is a coincidence or not. I have researched consumer reviews and nearly every review is a complaint of this horrid taste even describing it as “battery acid.” One person reported that their child threw up after playing with it. The taste did not fully fade from my hands and lips until Saturday April 13. I had scrubbed with soap, toothpaste, and even rubbing alcohol numerous times within these three days. Children are constantly touching their mouths and putting things in their mouths. Luckily we didn’t even have any of the actual substance on our hands when we tasted it. This product is allegedly nontoxic, but I don’t understand how it is still being sold. Here is a URL of other’s reviews with similar experiences.
