Not that this candy looked that appetizing to begin with, but if you have "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" Crunchy Candies in your house, get rid of it.
The California Department of Public Health discovered that one lot of the candy had excessive levels of lead, which can be harmful to the brain development of children. Pregnant women (not the target demographic of the movie or the candy, surely) who have eaten the candy, or parents of children who have, should consult a physician immediately, CDPH said in a statement Friday.

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

The first thing that ran through my head was Spike saying "Oh S#$^ what are we going to do now?"
Which, not so bad, but the 2nd thing was "it must be a decepticon plot!"
And the 3rd was... "that's the way transformers like their candy, with extra lead!"
After all those, I finally thought, "This is no good."

Wait, are you talking about Lead paint in Transformers toys? or what happened to other toys?
I don't think there's ever been a case of a Transformers toy actually having lead, misassembled sure, but not lead. Of course, I could be wrong, in which case I might have a deadly transformer in my room somewhere.![]()
I always thought that the nature of concept and the fact that it is one of the strongest core brands for Hasbro/TakaraTomy prevented the toys from being made half assed.

Yea dude, back in the 80's the original TF toys had lead in them. If my memory serves me correctly, I believe Astrotrain was singled out for it the most.

What?! No way... now I'm kind of glad I missed all those originals. Did that carry on to the post season 3 toys? Cause that's like the bulk of my original G1 collection.
