		<description>You may want to think twice before getting these for the kids.  According to green ratings guide, goodguide.com, these cuddly robot toys contain high levels of a substance known as antimony which could be dangerous.  The toy manufacturer denies all of this and who knows, maybe that is just a bunch of hype too.  Better safe than sorry though.</description>

		<description>As per news (probably, CNBC) today...these are TOXIC.  Here the consumers goes again...manufactured in China!  Evidently, Toys &#039;R Us didn&#039;t take advantage of their professed own &#039;Testing System&#039;? Is a massive &#039;Recall&#039; from All distributors in order or is the $ Bottom Line more important?
You do a fantastic job as Consumer Advocate.  Thank you, Virginia</description>
