Plain-English summary

Rite Aid Corp. is recalling approximately 12,000 Agglo Cyber Fighter and Flying Angel dolls in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recall was initiated because the wings of these flying dolls can break off during use, posing a risk of serious eye injuries to consumers.

The Cyber Fighter doll is a 5 1/2-inch plastic figure with black pants, silver arms, and a helmet with black goggles. It features black wings with red tips and is sold with a blue plastic launcher. The Flying Angel doll is a 6-inch figure dressed in a blue and purple tutu with pink wings and red tips. Both dolls are packaged on colorful cardboard backers with clear plastic covers and are marked "MADE IN CHINA."

CPSC and Rite Aid have received one report of a doll's wing breaking off during use, resulting in a laceration above the eye of a nearby child. Rite Aid drug stores in the eastern U.S. sold the dolls for about $3 between February 1997 and January 1998. Consumers should stop using the dolls immediately and return them to any Rite Aid store for a refund.
