Trivia

Have you heard of any of these more recent dangerous toys?

1. CSI Fingerprint Examination Kit. The white fingerprint powder was found to contain nearly 7% of a deadly form of asbestos. Though it was never officially recalled, it went quietly into the night, never to be seen again. Have you heard of this toy?

Yes

2. Aqua Dots. The coating on the beads that causes the beads to stick to each other when water is added contains a chemical that can turn toxic when many are ingested. Children who swallow the beads can become comatose, develop respiratory depression, or have seizures. Did you or your kids play with these?

3. Harry Potter Nimbus 2000 Vibrating Broomstick. Modeled after Harry's first broom, Mattel's now discontinued battery-operated Nimbus 2000 featured a grooved stick and handle for kids who wanted to ride it around the house. The issue, it vibrated. Did you buy this toy?

Yes

4. Furby. Not banned because of the danger to kids, but to national security! In 1999, the National Security Agency banned Furbies from the premises on threat that they were recording classified information. I guess there was an epidemic of NSA employees bringing in Furby dolls? Do you remember these?
