Yahoo! Finance has reported that
Hasbro plans on releasing a press ad in which the company expresses that they have not recalled any of their products due to the recent issues with high concentrations of lead in the paint of their products. The ad is expected to be run next week, and is an attempt to distance themselves from rival toy companies, who were forced to recall their products (made in China), after high concentrations of lead was found in them. The
article has Hasbro Chief Executive Alfred J. Verrecchia make the following statements;
"
Our standards meet or, certainly in the lead paint case, exceed the federal standards, and we have a very robust testing and inspection process in place to ensure that those standards are being adhered to. We believe that's why we've avoided the recalls"

News site
Bloomberg.com have reported some good news for TakaraTomy, and all of their stockholders:
Tomy Co. rose the most in 17 months on the Tokyo stock exchange after the Japanese toymaker and distributor doubled first-half profit on sales of ``Transformers'' toys and Nintendo Co.'s game players.
Net income was 1.5 billion yen ($13 million) in the six months ended Sept. 30, as sales rose 5.5 percent to 87 billion yen, the Tokyo-based company said yesterday. The shares gained 8.3 percent to 744 yen, the biggest advance since May 2006.
Their stock rise is due in part to 6.9 Billion Yen worth of Transformers sales, more than TakaraTomy were expecting (they had anticipated 7 Billion Yen of sales through to march 2008).
