This kind of thing will really piss off the authoritys in China.

Heads will roll like only they can in China.

Mattel today has excused to the Chinese people for having called back too many items recently, it seems. More precisely: 13% of the items were called back for poisenous colours used by the Chinese producers, but the rest, 87%, was called back for problems and dangers coming from bad design of the items, designed by Mattel.

Ehem...

No, actually it's not. The Chinese used the plans supplied by Simplicity the American designer.
