FUNTASTIC 'Hillbilly Teeth' Recalled
Consumer Affairs ^ | April 10, 2008 | Consumer Affairs

Posted on 04/10/2008 6:38:28 PM PDT by JACKRUSSELL

FUNTASTIC is recalling about 26,000 sets of "Hillbilly Teeth." The gray surface paint on the teeth contains excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard.

This recall involves a 2-pack fake Hillbilly Teeth with item # 2657. The item number is printed on the packaging. The gums are brown and the teeth are yellow.

The false teeth were sold at grocery, drug, convenience, and mass retailers nationwide from March 2005 through March 2008 for about $2. They were made in China.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and contact FUNTASTIC for information on receiving a refund.

For additional information, contact FUNTASTIC at (800) 434-5207 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday or visit the company's Web site at www.funtastictoy.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

the bad thing about this is that the kids got a good dose of lead. The good thing is that they likely wore it for 20 minutes and never used it again.

Anything for a globalist buck. Children are nothing more than collateral damage for those sleazeballs.

AS SOON AS I saw the headline on my sidebar I thought “China is givin’ us the lead again.” I have quit buying most things chinese, especially kids stuff. You just can’t trust them.

These can no longer be used for cosmetic dentistry in England. Tragic.

Why is it okay to sell gag ‘Hillbilly Teeth” but not okay to sell “Negro Lips” or “Jew Noses”?

“‘Hillbilly Teeth”,“Negro Lips”, “Jew Noses””

That’s the craziest box of Lucky Charms cereal I’ve ever heard.

Hillbilly teeth? They look a lot better than some of the teeth the Chinese have.

"The gray surface paint on the teeth contains excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard."

But that made them more realistic and complete.
