Stuffed Build-A-Bear Dragons Recalled Because Of Choking Hazard

The Build-A-Bear stuffed animal Starbrights Dragon is being recalled because a seam can open, allowing for the stuffing to be exposed and pose a choking hazard for children, theU.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday.

An estimated 33,600 people bought the recalled dragon, which was sold in stores and online between April 2015 and August 2015 for about $25. The dragon is covered in a blue furry fabric with silver satin tummy, feet, wings and horn.

The tracking label ends with 9333 or 9334 in the United States and 9337 or 9459 for Canada. The label can be found sewn on the backside of the leg.

The recall is a precautionary measure. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers can take the stuffed animal to any Build-A-Bear Workshop store to receive a coupon for any Build-A-Bear stuffed animal.
