What's being recalled

This recall involves CultureFly's L.O.L. Surprise! Trick or Treat-themed boxes sold with metal doll pins. The purple boxes have an image of three dolls, spiderwebs, skulls and bats; and the phrases L.O.L. Surprise! and Trick or Treat are printed on top. The metal doll pin has blue, pink and purple hair in pigtails, blue eyes, pink shoes and bra and underwear. They include magnetic, cutout clothes to dress the doll.

The problem, in CPSC's words
