  1. First aid

    Made Feb 17, 2019, sent to the company Feb 27, 2019, published by CPSC Mar 14, 2019

    The product, in the report: Hot Wheels Track Builder System

    Toy: Hot Wheels Track Builder System Back in Dec 13, 2018 the 2 year 2mo old boy was putting the tracks of the toys away, the sharp corners of the ends of the track stabbed him in throat area and caused a puncture wound that broached the skin (first aide required, no hospital nor doctor needed). Today, when the tracks were assembled on the floor, the sharp corners of the track again caused injury (a scratch that also punctured the skin, again first aide, no hospital nor doctor needed), this time is his wrist as he was putting his hand down next to the tracks. With this 2nd incident, I wanted to report that the sharp corners on the ends of the track pieces are so sharp that it can cause injury as individual pieces AND as an assembled track on the floor. Good thing the little boy did not accidentally step on the ends, that would really cause a deeper puncture wound.

    The product, in the report: Hot wheels speed chargers circuit speedway

    Product of concern, Hot wheels speed chargers circuit speedway, manufactured by Mattel Corp - My sons received this product for a Christmas gift. Had assembled as directed and my sons were playing with this racetrack for about 10 minutes after and one car flew off the track and my son picked up and dropped it saying it was really hot. Upon closer inspection of the car I noticed the bottom of car has 2 metal charging plates which became so hot they melted the plastic track of the set as well as the bottom of the car. I have photos of the car if needed.

    In process of contacting Mattel Corp about the issue

    My concern if they had continued to play with it was a burn hazard to them or potentially a fire hazard if the hot car would have come in contact with something flammable.

    Item #: BGX70 Hot Wheels Track Builder Rocket Launcher Stunt Pack MSRP: $4.99 Appropriate for: 4Y+

    Child age 5 1/2 years inserted his thumb “inside” bottom of the “rocket”...thumb got stuck. Toy had to be “broken” open to remove the “pinched” thumb. Causing severe trauma to child and thumb. If father or a second adult had not been close, child would been taken to ER to remove. Child will likely lose his thumb nail. It could of been worse....we do feel at the very least, a warning needs to be on product.

    I did look for a place on the site @ hotwheels.com to make a report...found nothing. I would think a company/band the size of Hot Wheels would like to hear directly from their customers.

    The product, in the report: Hot Wheels Revolution Stunt Park comes in a blue box with a picture of the toy on the front and a clear box where you can see the included car. Playset has magnetic car and tracks for the car. Along the track includes a red spring-loaded type of arm that swings a full 360 degrees with an attached car carrier to carry the car from one track to the other.

    My two sons, ages 4 and 5, were playing with this toy as intended. My 5 year old put his car in the red car holder on the “swing arm” and it sprung without warning and hit him in the face just under his eye leaving a small cut on his face. After he stopped crying he wanted to play with it again and it did the same thing but hit his finger this time with no injury.
