High amounts of lead can harm the nervous system, kidneys and other major organs. Anemia, a decline in red blood cells, can occur, as well as damage to the nervous system that may impair mental function. At worst, lead poisoning can cause seizures or death.

Hundreds of thousands of toys were recalled separately in the U.S. Thursday due to unsafe lead levels. Thousands of Thomas & Friends toys have been recalled this year for the same safety problem.
