The girls' cases come in pink or teal with heart, butterfly, or daisy patterns and a plush butterfly on the zipper pull, while the boys' cases are red or blue with jet plane patterns and a plush jet plane on the zipper pull. The affected products have UPC numbers 618842135844 (girls') and 618842135868 (boys'), with date codes beginning with 01/11 through 08/11, which can be found on the round Circo hang tag or on the white tag inside the main zippered compartment.
