July 1, 1991 Release # 91-090 E. Fomil and Sons, Inc. Recalls Comic Zoo Animals And Magic Milk and Juice Bottles Due To Choking Hazards WASHINGTON, DC -- In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), E. Fomil and Sons, Inc., Burlingame, CA is voluntarily recalling approximately 31,000 units of the combined toys, "Comic Zoo Animals," item number 31170, and "Magic Milk and Juice Bottles," item number 1703. The toys present small parts which pose a potential choking hazard for young children. The Comic Zoo Animals package consists of six small (less than three inches) plastic zoo animals: a blue horse, a peach donkey, a yellow lion, a pink turtle, a peach giraffe, and a brown hippo. The blister card package is labeled in part: "Comic Zoo Animals, EFS BURLINGAME, CA 94010; MADE IN CHINA." The pink turtle is a small part. The Magic Milk and Juice Bottles package consists of two plastic bottles one with disappearing milk and the other with disappearing juice. When the bottles are tilted upside down the fluids disappear. The bottles measure approximately 3-3/4 inches tall and one inch in diameter. The blister card package is labeled in part: "Magic Milk and Juice Bottles . . . EFS BURLINGAME, CA 94010, MADE IN HONG KONG." The bottles' nipples are small parts. The toys were sold in a variety of retail stores in the states of Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Indiana, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Washington from January 1990 through December 1990 at prices ranging from $1.49 to $1.99 each. Neither the CPSC nor the company is aware of any injuries involving these toys. This voluntary recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury. The potentially hazardous toys were identified at the Port of Oakland during a joint CPSC/U.S. Customs Service surveillance program. Consumers are urged to take the toys away from young children immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund of the purchase price. For more information about this recall, consumers may call E. Fomil and Sons, Inc., at 1-800-248-8697.
