Viking vehicle toys recalled

Modern Brands is voluntarily recalling 16 different vehicle models from the Viking Toys Mini Chubbie range.

The recall was because of a potential risk of the toys' 20mm rubber tyres coming off the wheel rim and being inhaled or ingested.

The affected products are labelled "Viking Toys, Sweden. Made in Thailand".

No Viking Toys branded Large Chubbie, Maxi Chubbie or Jumbo Chubbie ranges are included in the recall.

The toys were sold between May-September. People should immediately take the recalled toys away from children.

The toys should not be returned to retail stores - instructions on how to return the toys are available at www.modernbrands.co.nz or by phoning 0800 606 025 between 10am and 6pm.
