Wolverine, Spider-Man and Iron Man 2 Projector Flashlights Recalled


Washington, DC: Dollar Tree Stores Inc and Greenbrier International are recalling about 275,000 Wolverine, Spider-Man and Iron Man 2 Projector Flashlights because the flashlights can cause the batteries and/or bulb to overheat, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers.

The firm has received three reports of incidents involving batteries overheating in the recalled flashlights. Reported incidents include a flashlight that melted and a flashlight battery that caught fire. No injuries have been reported.

The recalled projector flashlights are about 6 1/2 inches in length and have the Wolverine, Spider-Man and Iron Man characters and names printed on them. The flashlights come with five extra mini discs that attach to the flashlight to project various images. The back of the packaging contains the number 16879-20012-003-1003 and UPC 6 39277 16879 5.

The flashlights were sold at Dollar Tree, Dollar Bill$, Dollar Tree $1 Stop, Deal$ and Dollar Tree Deal$ stores nationwide from August 2010 for about $1.
