The Bella Clutching toy is part of HABA's voluntary recall.

The popular German toy maker HABA is recalling over a dozen different products today.

No injuries have been reported but they are working with the Consumer Product Safety Commission because of potential problems.

The recall involves "a select group of HABA items containing glued on mirrors and/or prisms," according to a statement on their website.

The recall is in two parts -  the first is in conjunction with the CPSC.

The items involved in this recall are:
