They're just rolling through the recalls today, aren't they. Here's another one from the CPSC website:

We're lucky with this one, this is one of the few toys recalled lately that our kids or one of their friends do not have. This is getting utterly ridiculous. I wonder how many toys will be recalled before the Christmas shopping season?
