CPSC, JA-RU Inc. Announce Recall of "Blast Balls" Toys
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
When struck together, the toys create a cracking sound similar to that of a cap gun. The directions instruct consumers to strike one ball against the other in the palm of hand, to create the cracking sound. When consumers strike the "Blast Balls" together, sparks can ignite, posing a burn hazard.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the "Blast Balls" and contact JA-RU for a refund.
