Mattel recalling a buncha toys.

I was going to post something on this issue as well. We should have trade bans on countries that threaten us with their laxed and corrupt production and quality control practices. Simply unacceptable that these countries are killing our pets and now potential harming our children. BAN THEM and send production someplace else and apply stricter production and quality control practices before it is too late!

If there will be replacements... YES.

I'm a baby. I may get some of the LEAD laiden paint into my mouth.

We probably would not see much product if we banned entire countries based on the mistakes of some of their factories.

Should have a recall for 77 BB, Deluxe Brawl, Voyager Blackout. They all have flaws which are silly.
But they will never admit it is their faults. Fine by me. Just don't buy them.

No, I would hope by now I can resist the urge to put toys in my mouth. And if my dog should die from chewing on a toy, well he's learned his lesson, hasn't he?

I have no problem with high levels of lead in my Transformers

With the way things have been going these days in 20 years the recall ones would probably be worth the most....mistakes usually mean value..sad but true

I wouldn't. I'd wait till a few months after, and sell em on ebay as ultra rares for £££££. Then buy a replacement.

Unless, of course, you could no longer get them, or I had extreme sentimental value for that particular figure.

No I wouldn't exept I hate them ore get replacements, as replacement I figure twice of what I payed! :grin:

Can you PLEASE edit that word? It's offensive. I don't care if you're comfortable with it, or if it's used as a term of endearment between friends. Please do not use it.
