  • this was made before my bday lol and wow!

  • Toy buisness IS money....you cant download a toy right?

  • @Microsoft1Apple0 I am confused are you talking about the economy here or in China... seems the line is getting more blurred everyday.

  • You can tell its matel its well

  • 10 day contracts, 72hr work week, 7 days a week, 23 hr shift...

    these days a labor movement is emerging, strikes or the threat of strikes motivates employers to increase wages by up to 80% - that says something about the profit margins of those corporations, it's not as though they can not afford to pay decent wages.

    google:

    China labor unrest

    Honda strikes

    Foxconn strikes

    Foxconn suicides

  • I was talking about the plushes' noses and eyes. But that's good to know. I love my Webkinz. I have 149. (Just a collector's obsession, lol)

  • @ThylacineAli no These are figures like hard toys if you mean the webkinz figures, still no. no need to worry my friend, I have about 80 webkinz and 5 figures, non on the recall list

  • I wouldn't mind paying more for a decent quality product. Unfortunately, that option is not readily available to any consumer. Instead you are forced to buy something that is going to break within an hour of use.

  • sounds like the US is eating its own opium. the irony is that n. american companies designed many of the recalled toys. if these companies designed toys where their requirement is for the least expensive industrial strength paint on their products then lead paint would be at the top of the list. anyways, lead or no lead, paint is not edible.

  • their trying to kill us all!!! :<
