Flashing eyeball toys pulled for chemical hazard

Gemmy Industries Corp. is recalling about 500 plastic eyeballs because they contain kerosene that could pose a chemical danger to children.

The recall applies to Floating Eyeballs with the model numbers 27828, 27544 and 06470.

Toy and novelty stores in the United States sold the product during the month of July in 2006 for about $3 US.

Consumers should take the toys away from children and return them to the retailer for a refund.
