Additional information:
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) reports this recall involves some Super Safari Toy Set, model #30025, and the Deluxe Circus Train Set, model #30040. The model number can be found on the back of the box in the lower right corner. The Toy Sets come in a white box with the words, “Softimals. Build, Play, Repeat.” and “Ages 1-1/2 to 5” printed in a colorful font on the front and back of the package. The sets have numerous plastic pieces that can be connected and fit together to build a vehicle pulling cars with a hippo, giraffe, zebra and other animals. The drivers of the lead vehicles, Safari Sam and Mighty Mike, have removable blue or yellow plastic hats.
According to the CPSC, the plastic hats found on Toy Set figures pose a choking and/or aspiration hazard for children. The CPSC is aware of one incident in which an 18-month-old child placed a hat in his mouth and started to gag/choke but the toy was removed.
