Hurt, no treatment Made Dec 21, 2011, sent to the company Dec 30, 2011, published by CPSC Jan 24, 2012
The product, in the report: Pink plastic Toy Wand with 5 pointed star on top that emits sounds and changes colors when switched on.
This toy is a pink plastic toy wand with a 5 pointed star on top that emits sounds and changes colors when switched on. The only marking on this toy is a decal which reads Princess Expressions.The wand was purchased in December for my grandchild as a Christmas gift and left at my home for her to play with when she visits from out of state. This year, she wanted to play with the wand and I realized the batteries were dead. I replaced the batteries with 2 new AA [REDACTED]and then turned the unit on. It did not turn on, so I re-checked the loading of the batteries and tried the switch again. Suddenly, the handle became so hot, I instinctively dropped the wand to the floor. At this time I smelled plastic burning. Her grandfather came into the kitchen when he heard me yell. He grabbed it off the floor to keep the grandchild (age 3.5 years) from touching it and he burned his finger. He tossed it into the sink. He then secured kitchen gloves and removed the batteries as the wand was continuing to melt and heat and we could not stop it.
This is a very dangerous toy. It could have caused severe burns to a child, could have started a fire. What disturbs me most is there is no information on this toy regarding where it was made, or who made it. This leads me to believe that it is an import. I am reporting this to perhaps save a child from injury and because I am sick of unsafe toys being imported into the United States that harm our children.
