CPSC, Disney Store Announce Recall of Monsters, Inc. Character Plush
Dolls
WASHINGTON, D.C.- In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC), The Disney Store, Inc., headquartered in Glendale,
Calif., is voluntarily recalling about 14,500 Sulley with Boo plush
dolls sold exclusively at The Disney Store nationwide. The recalled 12-
inch doll is a blue monster named Sulley that is holding a 6-inch girl
doll, named Boo. Both are characters in the 2001 animated film,
Monsters, Inc. The Boo doll's hair has ponytail holders that could
detach, posing a choking hazard for young children.
The Disney Store has not received any reports of injuries or
incidents involving these dolls and is voluntarily recalling them to
prevent future incidents.
The recall includes only the 12-inch Sulley with Boo plush dolls.
The Sulley doll is a blue monster with purple spots, a tail and horns.
Sulley is holding a Boo doll in his right arm. Boo is a little girl with
dark hair and small pink ball ponytail holders and rubber bands. Labels
on the Sulley doll read, "Disney Store," "SULLEY W/BOO 12"," and "Made
in China."
The Disney Stores nationwide exclusively sold these plush dolls
from July 2002 through October 2002 for about $20.
Consumers should immediately remove and discard the two pink
ponytail holders and two rubber bands from the Boo doll's hair, or
return the item to any Disney Store for a full refund. For more
information, call Disney at (800) 566-3161 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. PT
Monday through Friday, or visit their web site at www.disneystore.com
This recall involves only the Sulley with Boo dolls sold
exclusively at The Disney Store and does not reflect items sold through
the Disney catalog or at other retail outlets. Additionally, the
battery-operated talking version of the Sulley with Boo doll is not part
of this recall.
