Plain-English summary

Mattel, Inc. is voluntarily recalling its Disney Poppin' Sounds Pull Train Preschool toys (Model No. 9820) in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recall was initiated in response to consumer reports that the toy broke, making small balls enclosed in a dome on the smokestack accessible to children. This creates a possible choking hazard.

Approximately 400,000 units were sold nationwide in 1990 and 1991. No injuries have been reported to the firm. Although Mattel found no product failures in safety testing conducted on 16,500 units, the company is taking this action due to its commitment to safety.

Consumers should stop using the toy immediately. Mattel is offering a $5.00 voucher for the return of the product. Consumers may return the toys to Mattel Consumer Affairs at 15930 East Valley Boulevard, City of Industry, CA 91744, or call 1-800-233-4004 for further information.
