must be an average village idiot. Her claim contradicts what a recent study of recalled Adult Toy show. MOST of the recalls were NOT because of lead-based paint. Recalls due to lead-based paint constituted only a small fraction of the recalls. Most of the recalls were for reasons related to the design of the toys, such as having small magnets. But most U.S. media outlets, working as the mouthpieces of the U.S. government, has tried to befuddle things by playing word games such as IMPLYING that all of the reasons for the recalls were related to manufacturing issues. That is false.
While lead-based paint is related to manufacturing in China, most of the toy recalls were due to design related reasons that are not the responsibility of the manufacturer. Do a search on yahoo or google for an article, one of the very few relatively objective ones, that was published on cnn or msnbc a while back. It cites the study that I referred to above.yes there are some toys made inchina being recalled,two that iknow off,thomas the tank die cast (lead in the paint) and bindees( if swolled turns to a drug that is the same as lsd)
