Some 600 Toy Story 3 Bowling merchandise has been recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission last May 5. The products, which have been made in China and were sold at Walmart, were pulled off shelves because the bowling pins have the presence of red paint which its distributor G.A. Gertmenian and Sons believes to contain lead.

The full CPSC release follows after.
