Description

This recall involves Lamaze Munching Max chipmunk stuffed toys with item number L27578. "Tomy," "Lamaze" and the item number are printed on a sewn-in fabric label near the tail of the toy.

Hazards

Parts inside the toy can break creating a sharp point that can penetrate the surface of the toy, posing a laceration hazard.
