Design flaws...

'The world's biggest toy maker, Mattel, has apologised to senior officials in Beijing for blaming Chinese suppliers over a spate of recalls of substandard products.

In an attempt to mend strained relations, Mattel admitted that in the "vast majority" of cases, flaws in its own designs were responsible for high levels of lead paint and loose magnets which prompted safety scares.'
