Signal Brief

  • CPSC says about 43,674 ABC Trading light-up toys are recalled because children can access their button-cell batteries.
  • The affected identifiers are 6502 for the light-up tie, HD-10 for the headbands and L-508 for the glasses.
  • Owners should stop using affected toys, contact ABC Trading for a refund and provide the requested disposal photograph.
  • CPSC reports no incidents or injuries, and the button-cell batteries should follow local hazardous-waste disposal or recycling procedures.

The ABC Trading light-up toy recall covers about 43,674 children’s toys with identifiers 6502, HD-10 and L-508. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says children can easily access the products’ button-cell batteries, creating an ingestion hazard that can cause severe internal chemical burns or death. Owners of an affected toy should stop using it immediately and follow ABC Trading’s refund process.

Check these identifiers: 6502 is the recalled light-up tie, HD-10 identifies the recalled light-up headbands, and L-508 identifies the recalled light-up glasses. CPSC says the identifier appears on a white label on the large clear plastic package.

Which products are in the ABC Trading light-up toy recall?

CPSC recall 26-799 covers Light-Up Glasses, Crown Headbands, Sparkle Headbands and Ties imported by ABC Trading. The agency estimates that about 43,674 units are included.

The recalled identifiers are:

  • 6502: light-up tie.
  • HD-10: light-up crown and sparkle headbands.
  • L-508: light-up glasses.

The products were sold at ABC Trading stores in Los Angeles, other specialty stores nationwide and through abctradinginc.com from September 2016 through May 2026 for about $1.

Why were the toys recalled?

CPSC says the button-cell battery compartments can be easily accessed by children. If a button cell or coin battery is swallowed, it can cause serious injury, including internal chemical burns, and can be fatal.

The recall notice states that the toys violate the mandatory federal toy standard because of the accessible batteries. The hazard is the reason for the stop-use instruction; it does not mean that an injury has already occurred.

What should owners do?

1. Stop using the toy

If the product matches the recalled description and identifier, CPSC says to stop using it immediately.

2. Verify the identifier

Check the packaging for 6502, HD-10 or L-508. Do not assume that every ABC Trading light-up toy is included.

3. Contact ABC Trading for the refund

CPSC says consumers should contact ABC Trading for a refund.

4. Provide the requested disposal photo

The recall notice says consumers will be asked to email recallabc@gmail.com a photograph showing the recalled product disposed of in the trash.

5. Handle the batteries separately

CPSC instructs consumers to dispose of or recycle the button-cell batteries according to local hazardous-waste procedures. Do not treat the battery-disposal instruction as identical to disposal of the toy itself.

Do you need a receipt for the refund?

The reviewed CPSC notice does not state that a purchase receipt is required. It specifically says consumers will be asked to provide a photograph showing disposal of the recalled product. If ABC Trading changes or adds requirements, the latest company or CPSC instructions should control.

Have any injuries been reported?

No. CPSC reports no incidents or injuries in the September 24 recall notice. That is an important evidence boundary: the ingestion hazard is serious and potentially fatal, but TPS has no basis to claim that a child has been injured by one of these recalled products.

Is this the same as ABC Trading’s earlier 2026 toy recall?

No. ABC Trading was involved in a separate CPSC recall announced in May 2026 involving different children’s toys and different model identifiers. That earlier action covered about 84,700 units. Owners should therefore match the actual product and identifier rather than relying only on the company name or a generic description such as light-up toy.

Why the battery-disposal step matters

The refund process and battery-disposal process are related but not identical. CPSC says the recalled product should be disposed of as part of the refund proof process, while the button-cell batteries should be disposed of or recycled according to local hazardous-waste procedures.

This distinction helps avoid replacing one safety problem with another by putting loose button cells into an inappropriate waste stream.

What could change next?

CPSC or ABC Trading could update the incident count, affected product scope, consumer contact information or refund instructions. Any such change should update this same recall page because the reader job remains identifying recall 26-799 and completing its remedy.

Verification note

TPS reviewed the September 24 CPSC recall notice for product descriptions, identifiers, unit count, hazard, remedy, disposal instructions and reported incidents. TPS also compared the notice with ABC Trading’s separate May 2026 CPSC recall to prevent the two product groups from being conflated.

Bottom line: if an ABC Trading light-up toy is marked 6502, HD-10 or L-508, stop using it and follow recall 26-799. CPSC reports no injuries in this recall, but the accessible button-cell batteries create a potentially severe ingestion hazard.
