Bath Toy Attacks Genitals, 19 Boys Injured

By Faroh Sauder, Oct 21st, 2010

Bath toy submarine recalled.

An innocent looking bath toy – a happy little yellow submarine with a big smile – has apparently gone into attack mode.

The battery operated toy has turquoise windows, an orange propeller, and a periscope that turns the toy on and off. There’s an intake valve in the front, which takes in water using a small pump. The water is then expelled from the back to push it through the water.

Munchkin Incorporated, the makers of the toy, have released information indicating that 19 boys were injured when playing with the toy submarine. The suction from the intake valve is strong enough that the loose, sensitive, skin of the genitals can be sucked into the submarine and cut by the pump.

The toy should be removed from tubs immediately, taken away from children, and returned to the company.

Munchin can be reached Monday through Friday, 24 hours a day, at 1-877-242-3134, for details on returning the toy in exchange for a different toy. Consumers may also visit their site at: http://www.munchkin.com/customer_servic ... recall.php

Hmm, if we replace its AA battery by a high powered lithium cell, that thing could have potential!

My bath toy turned me gay.*

It was a boat with a small, hotdog-shaped piece on the bottom that detached; this contained one AAA battery and on the end of it, the propeller.

The thing vibrated wonderfully, and it didn't take a curious little me long to discover it felt AWESOME to ... well... sit on. (not that I stuck it up my bum quite, but nearly).

I'm sure I would have hurt myself with the toy discussed above !!

*(I am speaking jokeingly, folks. I know it was really repressed daddy-issues that made me gay!** )

** (Kidding!!! Of COURSE it was actually the green tights I wore during our 5th grade Peter Pan production that made me the queen I am!!***)

***(Okay.... all kidding aside... it was Jason, the brown-haired cutie in cub-scouts who let me suck him off during a camp out that did it. Ya HAPPY now !??)

Love the avatar, Stefan!

And it makes you wonder, do they even test these toys?

I always thought that all toys were tested for saftey before they were put on general sale just think you could put your son in a bath and bring out your daughter ouch

Back in my day, slave-labored, dirt-cheap, Chinese-outsourced toys were made to a much higher standard. Things just ain't the same any more; potatoes cost twice already.

Off topic alert;

Prostatracura, every time I see a post from you, I get hungry. For some reason, your nickname makes me think of a fine Italian meat or cheese!!
