Toy Saxophones Recalled by Arby's NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 7, 1998 Release # 98-106 Company Phone Number: (800) 487-2729 CPSC Consumer Hotline: (800) 638-2772 CPSC Media Contact: Nychelle Fleming, (301) 504-7063 CPSC, Arby's Announce Recall of Toy Saxophones WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Arby's Franchise Association of Atlanta, Ga., is voluntarily recalling about 220,000 toy saxophones distributed with Arby's Adventure Meals. The small keys and part of the mouthpiece on the saxophone could separate from the toy, presenting a potential choking hazard to young children. Arby's is not aware of any injuries involving these toys. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury. The toy saxophone is made of orange-colored plastic. The saxophone measures about 9 inches long and has four small, finger-operated keys and a mouthpiece that are colored white. The saxophone was packaged in a plastic bag labeled in part, "Musical Notes...Arby's...Adventures In Music...Made In China." The toy was distributed with Adventure Meals at Arby's restaurants nationwide from January through March 1998. Consumers should immediately take these toys away from young children and return them to their local Arby's restaurant for a free replacement toy. For more information, consumers should call Arby's Customer Relations Department at (800) 487-2729 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. EDT Monday through Friday. No other "Adventures In Music" toys distributed with Arby's Adventure Meals are included in this recall.
