Mattel (MAT): Looking into the latest recall

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. ...STOP USEING CHINA FOR ANYTHING. I WILL PAY MORE. THEY DO NOT PLAY BY THE SAME RULES AS US COMPANYS DO. THEY LIE, THEY CHEAT, THEY TWIST WORDS. WHEN I READ OF THE MAN KILLING HIMSELF. THAT IS WHAT THE GOV. CALLS THEM TO DO. SCAPEGOATS......THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED.THEREFORE, IF YOU CONTINUE TO USE CHINA, I WILL NOT BUY YOUR PRODUCT. THEY WILL DO IT AGAIN.

Seves them right for moving toy production to dirty China. All done in the name of profit and look where that got them. The lead paint (and dangerous product) issues are gonna continue to ripple thru all toys (not just MAT) and other Chinese products. We can only hope it prompts a new generation of smart US startups who can make a safe product here in the good ole USA. A "Not Made in China" toy label would be a smart marketing move.

Wake up America. This is another form of domestic terrorism. American companies , flooding the nation with cheap, poorly made products, of questionable materials some of which are KNOWN health hazards to ALL humans. All for the sake of the almighty dollar. I'm all for making a buck but not at the expense of the well being of my fellow man. Companies that have moved their manufacturing operations outside the country are in all aspects of the term, traitors to this country. They do NOT support America, but rather support those countries that seek to undermine the fabric on which this country was founded. Independence is at stake,not to mention the lives and livleyhoods of millions of Americans each year. If they don't poison us with their tainted foods they attack with their poorly made products. Exploding tires, bacteria laden seafood, poisoned toothpaste.....the list is far beyond what you read in the papers or see in the news. Bin Laden attacked and killed a small group of hard working Americans (God Bless their souls), but each and every day, big business attacks this country and affects millions. Financial terrorism, bio terrorism, corperate terrorism........destroying America everday.
Stop Terrorism in America ???? Stop supporting companies that threaten lives and livelyhood eavery day.
Look for the "made in" labels ON EVERYTHING!!!!

BUY AMERICAN

Forgive the typos and spelling errors.....but I'm pissed

The good news is as China and US pollution erodes the ozone layer the toys lining nurseries will help protect the tots from cosmic rays

Cheap overseas labor comes with a price. You would be surprised to find that many parents are willing to pay a few extra dollars on toys made in U.S.A. Local toy makers should take advantage of this opportunity

The corporate screw-ups at Mattel need to re-evaluate their business plan quickly. Come out from behind your desks and you may discover that China isn't all about cheap labor. It's about a culture that will do anything for a buck or to save a buck (I know I'm Chinese). Mattel officials may not want to leave their manufacturing decisions in the hands of inept twenty-something or even thirty-something MBA's who think they know something about China because they go to a chinese restaurant twice-a-week or they talked to a chinese exchange student back in college. As a parent of 3 children, I will be buying educational computer games from now on. Good luck to Mattel and any other toy manufacturer that ventures into China.

I am relieved to see that I am not the only one who recognizes the hazard of buying products from countries outside the USA. Yes, as of now we only are told about the toys from China. Terrorism can be subtle and deceptive and obviously pathetically low, they would aim at our infants and toddlers!!! If the Government is not going to Open their eyes to this, Please Americans... what is it going to take, to stand together and refuse to purchase from foreign countries. I don't give a hoot, how cheap it is to make in foreign countries, and I certainly never trusted foreign trade. I am taking a stand to purchase products only made in AMERICA! I welcome anyone to stand with me. We can make a difference!!

As unbelievable as it seems, reality is Terrorism is deceptive and subtle. They don't care who they attack or who gets hurt, and now OUR INFANTS AND CHILDREN. OKay Americans, time is now to stand together and make a difference. I am not waiting for the government to recognize this act of terrorism, and I most certainly am not going to wait for something more fatal. I am taking a stand to buy products Made IN AMERICA. I welcome anyone to stand with me. We can and will make a difference!!!

ARE WE SO STUPID AS TO KEEP PURCHASING MADE IN CHINA PRODUCTS & FOOD? THE POWER IS IN MONEY & WE CAN CALL A HALT TO THIS CHINA SYNDROME BY NOT BUYING THEIR PRODUCTS OR EATING THEIR FOOD...LET;\'S GET SMART!!!!

I went to Wal Mart today to see if I could find anything that was made in the USA. The only thing that i found at Wal Mart was a few of the employee's. I asked one of the employee's why some of the toys that had been recalled was still on the shelf. He replied, well if you try to buy it our registers won't ring it up. I should have grabbed one to see if I could have bought it. America needs to take care of America. Free trade does not come cheap to the average American.

My husband and I are both employed, and have 4 children. Even though every day is a financial struggle, I would be willing to spend more $ on toys made in the US. It's true, when things are cheaper, you can have more of them...but that's not what we need to teach our children. They need fewer toys-and more appreciation for them! Let's make them safe, and with better quality.

Good grief, they made toys with lead paint for decades right here in the United States.

I blame Mattel. They should have an American and a Chinese Quality Control Manger at each Factory to check the products prior to them being boxed and shipped to the USA. wORKING IN PRODUCTION I MADE SURE ALL MERCHANDISE WAS UP TO THE QUALITY IT HAD TO BE PRIOR TO SHIPPING OUT.
SORRY MATTEL YOU ARE WRONG SO THE BLAME DOES NOT GO TOTALY TO CHINA
