Build-A-Bear Accessory Has 10 Times the Legal Lead Limit, Says Consumer Health Group
 |
The"Collectibear Pin" (pictured here) has 10 times the federal limit for lead in children's toys, according to the CEH.
Build-A-Bear refutes that claim. In an article in today's Post-Dispatch the toy company says that the pin in question passed "rigorous testing" last year.
This isn't the first time CEH has leveled charges at Build-A-Bear.
In 2008 the agency sued Build-A-Bear over claims that a dog collar charm manufactured by the company contained dangerously high levels of lead and other carcinogens.
