CPSC Recalls Fidget Spinner Keychains
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued an official recall for Pokémon fidget spinner keychains made in China for Fashion Accessory Bazaar. The center post on the fidget spinner can become loose or fall out, posing a choking hazard, according to officials. So far, the CPSC says no injuries have been reported. No ASI-listed companies were named in the recall.
The keychains have a silver metal key ring with a metal bar attached. At the end of the metal bar is a Pokémon-themed fidget spinner. The spinner is red and white in the center and yellow on the outer portion. The spinner keychain measures about half an inch high by 2.5 inches wide by 4.5 inches long. About 20,000 of the items were sold at Bonita Marie Int., Gamestop, Wonderland stores and others nationwide, and online at Amazon.com and other websites from September 2017 to November 2017 for between $7 and $10 each.
Officials are asking consumers to stop using the recalled keychains immediately and contact Fashion Accessory Bazaar for instructions on how to receive a full refund.
