Plain-English summary

C.D.X. Trading Inc. is recalling about 1,500 Falcon Action Toy Jets. The recalled toys are battery-operated, multi-colored toy jet airplanes measuring about 9 inches in length and width. A clear plastic cover over the cockpit exposes a pilot with his hand on the controls. A label on the jet's wings reads "FALON" (Falcon misspelled). The toy jet plays music and some of the lights flash off and on as the jet propels itself by two small front wheels. "C.D.X. Toys CDL-22338D" and "Made in China" are embossed on a label on the battery compartment lid.

The recall was issued because small parts of the toy jet can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. No injuries have been reported.

Variety and gift stores, flea markets and street-sale vendors sold the toy jets in the New York and New Jersey regions, from November 2002 through December 2002, for between $5 and $7. Consumers should return the toy jets to the place of purchase for a full refund or purchasers from street-sale or flea markets can mail the toy to: C.D.X. Trading Inc. at 1576-78 Gates Avenue, Ridgewood, NY 11385-2728, to receive a refund, including postage. For more information, call C.D.X.
