Toy recalls

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recently announced several toy recalls.

• Matchbox Toys is recalling and exchanging nearly 1.5 million Voltron Lion robot toys because certain paints on the metal parts contain excess levels of lead.

The deluxe (11-inch) and miniature (6-inch) toys affected by the recall were made in Taiwan.

Toys that are not affected by the recall include Voltron Lions made in Japan, those made entirely of plastic and all other Voltron products including Voltron Warriors, Voltron Gladiators and Voltron Vehicles.
