WASHINGTON - Hasbro Inc. is recalling about 230,000 Super Soaker rockets because the water tank caps can be unexpectedly and forcibly thrust off, causing injuries, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday.
Selling for about $30, the Super Soaker Monster Rocket has a 7-foot inflatable mylar rocket with a plastic and foam fin. The rocket has a blue and orange launch base, with the water pressure tank attached.
The words "Monster Rocket" are printed on the body of the rocket.
Consumers should stop using the toy rocket immediately and contact Rhode Island-based Hasbro toll-free at 866-487-4737 anytime, to receive a replacement product of equal value.
