Kid Dimensions estimates that fewer than 4,000 tea sets, which sold for about $10, have already been purchased by consumers. None of the other "Littlest Pet Shop " series toys are involved in this recall.Small plastic animal figures attached to the teapot and the sugar bowl are removable and present a potentially serious choking hazard to young children. Because the product does not meet CPSC's small parts regulations, the tea set is a banned hazardous substance under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act and may not be sold.

The set includes a teapot with lid, serving tray, sugar bowl and lid, creamer, 4 cups, 4 saucers, and 4 spoons. Small plastic animal figures are permanently attached to the cups and creamer in the set.

The modified product package will feature a starburst label that reads, "Contains No Small Parts."The tea sets, imported from China, were distributed nationwide from July through November 1994 to retail stores including Toys "R" Us, Army Exchange Stores, Jamesway, Meijers, and F A O Schwarz. Neither the company nor CPSC is aware of any complaints or injuries involving the tea set.Consumers are urged to not give this toy as a gift to children under 3 years of age and to immediately take the tea set away from any children under 3 who may have the set.
