I purchased three stuffed toys with flashlights in their bellies from amazon for my three children. We placed three brand new [REDACTED] AAA batteries into the battery boxes of each individual toy. Approximately 30 minutes after we put the batteries in, my four year old son was upset because the flashlight on his toy was no longer working. I attempted to turn on the flashlight myself. That is achieved by tapping the flashlight in the belly twice. I could not get it to work either. I decided to check the battery box to see if there was and on/off switch that my son had flipped. Upon opening the velcro backing on the toy and touching the battery box it was to hot to touch with a bare hand as was the fabric of the stuffed toy. I handed to toy to my husband to check. He gloved his hand and pulled the battery box out of the toy. He immediately unscrewed the battery box and attempted to pull out the batteries. He had to use a tool to get the batteries out because they were even hotter than the battery box. My husband said the batteries were to the point of exploding they were so hot. We immediately then checked the other two toys that our other two children had. Both of those toys had their flashlights on. The battery boxes were completely cool and the other toys were functioning properly. My concern is that we were putting our children to bed with these brand new toys. Had my son fallen asleep cuddling this toy or even just having it on his bed this particular toy would have certainly caught fire and the batteries exploding causing my son serious harm or even death.
