No one hurt Made Jul 22, 2024, sent to the company Jul 24, 2024, published by CPSC Aug 7, 2024
The product, in the report: FAO Schwarz Glow Brights Dragon - Greenish blue dragon that lights up and roars when hugged.
The product is an FAO Schwarz Glow Brights Dragon. There are several other toys in their line that seem to use the same electronics, so this may apply to other products. We received this toy as a gift for my three year old daughter. We recently replaced the correct AAA batteries and gave it back to our daughter. She returned it a few minutes later saying it smelled funny. After seeing smoke coming from the electronics unit in the bottom, I pulled it out. It was extremely hot to the touch and appeared to be close to catching fire. I quickly pulled the batteries. It is very, very lucky that this did not occur after she fell asleep in her bed!
