The product, in the report: GRUPO RUZ Company stuffed grinch toy with fan on the front, style #A28924, upc 93849 08101
I recently visited Walmart in Valparaiso Indiana. I was looking at the new Grinch Christmas stuffed moving toys. I picked up 1 and it had a present on it and sang and moved back and forth. When I picked up a different one in behind it and brought it out of the bottom shelf it grabbed my hair winding it around a fan on the front of it. I could not unwind my hair and was afraid it was going to keep winding it. I had to litterly rip my hair from it. It ripped off at least 6 inches. I can not imagine my granddaughter playing with this dangerous toy. My husband took pictures and videos. This needs to be removed from all shelves.I was so hurt and traumatized by this experience. I was shocked that no one thought it would be dangerous for people with long hair.
