Little Tikes recalls toy tools over choking threat: CPSC

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has ordered a recall of about 1.7 million Little Tikes toy tool sets and trucks, citing a choking hazard from toy nails, the agency said on Wednesday. The oversized plastic toy nails were also recalled in August 2009, the CPSC said in a statement. The new voluntary recall involves another 11 models of Little Tikes’ Workshop and tool sets. Little Tikes, a unit of MGA Entertainment, has reported two more incidents that took place before the 2009 recall of children who choked when the toy nail became lodged in their throats.
