Ninja Turtle chairs
Ace Novelty, of Bellevue, Wash., is instructing consumers to remove the bandanna-style strap on 69,100 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle foam chairs, because children can become entangled and strangle in the strap.
Toy stores and department stores sold the chairs from January 1990 through April 1991 for about $l9 each.
Each of the green-plush chairs, measuring 2 feet high by 14 inches wide, features a yellow seat and a Ninja Turtle head as a backrest. The chairs were sold in four styles, all with model number 28021: "Raphael," "Leonardo," "Michelangelo" and "Donitello." Each chair has a red bandanna around the backrest, red-mesh wrist straps on the arms, and a red "R," "L," "M" or "D" in a black stripe along the bottom of the chair.
