Since we crank out so many stories each week some really good ones get lost in the cracks. And since so many new people visit Guyism every day (thank you), we thought we’d start taking some time on the weekends to share some classics that many of our newer readers may have missed.

I’m surprised I survived the 1980’s. I was small and fragile and looking back at the toys…I can’t believe that at some point someone didn’t need my dental records and an eyewitness account to identify me. I was young and naïve and bleeding a good portion of the time. Yeah, mostly bleeding.

PUCCI PUPPIES - MY OWN PUPPY HOUSE GOLDEN RETRIEVER
Pucci Puppies - My Own Puppy House Golden Retriever)
Price: $14.99
Manufacturer or Distributor: Battat, Incorporated
Purchased: Target
Age Recommendation: “2 years +”
Warnings: None
HAZARD: POTENTIAL FOR CHOKING INJURIES!
W.A.T.C.H. OUT! Oral age children as young as 2 years old are encouraged to play with this plush, golden retriever puppy, sold with a dog house and accessories including a bone, cookie, chew toy and food bowl. These accessories are small parts that could easily be ingested by a child, presenting the potential for serious choking injuries.
I've never heard of Battat Toys, but a visit to their website reveals the most garish warning about lead paint safety recalls. "Thou dost protest too much?" CDX knows that choking on toys is no laughing matter. Hell, our entire childhood was ruined because some kid in the 70's choked on a Battlestar Galactica missile. But seriously - this is probably some off-brand toy made in a sweatshop in China. Parents - use common sense when buying kids toys. If it looks cheap, it probably is for a reason.
