SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20150605-3E257-2147432296. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Hasbro Littlest Petshop Walkables baby tiger toy. The only readable number on the toy is stamped 11591 (Hasbro Littlest Petshop Walkables baby tiger toy.). Incident: I was changing the batteries in my daughter's Hasbro Littlest Petshop Walkables baby tiger toy. I opened the back of the tiger's battery compartment and removed the batteries. Somehow one of the batteries exploded with a loud pop. I piece of metal flew off of the battery case and there was evidence of combustion (ash & smoke). Fortunately no one was injured, however my 9 year old was in the proximity and was frightened quite badly. I think this is not an isolated incident. I would like a refund on the toy, which was purchased at Target. I would also like you to consider a recall. I have reported this to the Consumer Products Safety Commission. I have retained the toy and the remnants of the battery. Please feel free to contact me. Sincerely [REDACTED]
