Mackie International Inc. Recalls Fruit Drink Because Of Potential Choking Hazards NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 2, 1989 Release # 89-075 Mackie International Inc. Recalls Fruit Drink Because Of Potential Choking Hazards WASHINGTON, DC -- The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced that Mackie International Inc. of Paramount, California is voluntarily recalling their plastic toy gun, "Chilly Bang Bang Fruit Drink" because it may pose a potential choking hazard to young children. The opening tab at the end of the gun barrel separates and is a small part which could be ingested by small children and cause choking. Approximately 30,000 toy guns were sold in retail stores nationwide from April through May 1989 for approximately $.30 each. The toy guns should be taken away from children immediately and returned to the retail store where purchased for a full refund. The possible small parts problem was brought to the Commission's and the company's attention by the Empire State Consumer Association. The Hazardous Product Task Force of the New York Attorney General's office worked together with the CPSC and the company on the corrective action plan. While neither the CPSC nor Mackie International, Inc. is aware of any injuries associated with the toy gun, the recall is undertaken as a preventive measure.
