Hasbro brought back three classic Super Soakers this spring. The US consumer product safety commission has announced that the Super soaker xp20 and xp30 used too much lead in the ink when the manufacturer printed their labels. Now, two of them are being recalled to Hasbro for a full refund.
A total of 52,900 of them were sold at Target between March and July of this year. The CPSC says that Hasbro managed to ship some 52,900 of the 52,900 so far.

The blue Super soaker XP100 is a Super soaker. It shoots a sharp stream of water. It’s now got a quick-release tank instead of having to screw and unscrew every time you need a refill.
Hasbro uses the original, classic pinch-trigger mechanism. It also has a tendency to leak all over the place, constantly dribbling or even spraying water out the end if you pump it up to full pressure.
