Lawn dart sets

Units: About 19,400 darts (In addition, about 4,048 were sold in Canada)

The recalled lawn dart sets were sold for 2, 4 and 5 players and contained 4, 8 and 10 units (darts) respectively, as well as individual spare darts. The lawn darts are about a foot long (30 cm), have polypropylene flights (fins) designed to be held at the tail, with a brass body ending in a stainless steel spigot (peg). The lawn darts were sold in assorted colors including red, blue, yellow, purple, pink, orange, ivory and green. The CROWN DARTS logo is printed on the product.

The problem, in CPSC's words

Lawn darts are banned in the U.S. due to serious risks of skull punctures and other serious injuries, particularly to children.
