Question of the Week #77 · 1:23am Oct 26th, 2022
Hello everyone and welcome back to the question of the week. I hope you're all having a wonderful week so far. May your costumes be pristine and unwrinkled.
Tragically the question this week isn't a Halloween themed one... Technically.
What is the weirdest reason you have ever heard of a toy or item being recalled?
Also if you are partaking in Halloween, what costume are you wearing this year (snuck a question in)?
Stay safe, may you candy bowls be full and your chocolates yummy.
The 2002 Happy Family Midge and baby doll. Purely because Mattel thought pushing the doll as an unmarried teen mother was a clearly bad idea! Man do you know how often that happens IRL!?! Ridiculous. Also I'm dressing up as a Sim from The Sims 4 (yes my Fimfiction account was dressed up as a Sim last year, but I didn't dress up irl last year [got sick on Halloween]).
I loved Creepy Crawlers as a kid. However apparently they were recalled due to some of the metal molds and stuff you inserted into the oven area burning kids. They made some safer versions at some point I believe. It's too bad there was a controversy over that because I used my Creepy Crawlers oven all of the time. I loved making different bugs and spiders in it. Fun times.
