The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has alleged that Target knowingly imported and sold various toys –including Anima and Sunny Patch Chairs– with federally prohibited levels of lead paint.
CPSC has provisionally accepted a $600,000 penalty settlement, noting that retailers and importers will be held to the same standards as manufacturers.
Target has voluntarily recalled the toys and denies all allegations of lawful misconduct.
