Tell me this isn't more lead-based trinkets that are being shipped over from China. I'm WAY sick of having to worry & read everything to see where it's made at. Wouldn't it be nice to know that when you looked at the bottom of a toy that your child is playing with, that it would read; Made in the U.S.A. or Made in Canada??? Heck, guarantee me that things won't harm our kids and I'd be willing to pay a couple extra bucks!!! Anyone else with me on that???

I understand your point qwick. But my toys my kids (if I had kids) don't play with! And you'll be safe as long as you don't put that model in your mouth!!

Not exactly sure what you're referring to, so I'll decline a response to the tail end of your statement.

qwick, how exactly would a lead based 1/12th scale motorcycle model be harmful?? Unless a child puts it in their mouth. That is what I am referring too!!

LMFAO... sorry, I can't help but roll on the floor right now... LOL
Ok , LOL
on a more serious LOL note LOL
I don't think he meant it that way Kevin.
If they really want o lose lead, then for gods sake, stop sellin lead pencils, the dust is on their hands, they put them in their mouths, dust on the desks and in your clothes. our schools are riddleled with lead...
Even in college, I had a white coat, and realised I couldn't wear it to classes, cause one swipe of the desk top with my arm, and the thing turned grey and black... really, and this was College, not elementary school where kids draw, and erase like maniacs on emphetamines...
lead.... GET IT OUT OF OUR SCHOOLS....!
I do agree with you too though Kevin,
Lead has no place in toys either...

Products with high levels of lead don't have to be put into the mouth to be harmful to children.

Lyle, different type of lead. Yes, if it was pencil lead, then we'd all have gone crazy by now from when we were kids and would probably be sitting around right now typing on a keyboard, when we weren't out riding a two wheeled motor vehicle that sat between our legs and produced almost 200 horsepower, lol. Ya know, maybe those leaded pencils were bad after all, lol. I think we've all gone mad!!!
