Tara Toy Corporation is recalling approximately 44,000 Sesame Street Push Power action figures (item #75110) sold nationwide from June 1991 to January 1992. The recalled toys include three models: Big Bird driving a red fire engine, Ernie riding an airplane, and Cookie Monster on a scooter with a cookie carrier. During CPSC testing, these plastic toys broke and released small pieces of plastic and screws while exposing sharp points and edges, and the wheels separated. This poses potential choking, laceration, and puncture wound hazards to young children, though neither the CPSC nor the company is aware of any injuries.
Consumers should take the toys away from young children immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a refund of the purchase price. Consumers with questions may call Tara Toy Corporation at (516) 273-8810.
