"Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and return it to any Disney Store retail location, Walt Disney World, or Disneyland Resort theme park retail store location for a full refund," the U.S. government agency says in a statement.

Around 80,000 of the Disney toys, which are manufactured in China, were sold in the U.S. market, and another 650 were sold in Canada.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission targets consumer products that might cause injuries or death to buyers, including toys.
