Doesn't surprise me Sad - I know from sources that their business practices have not always been completely above board going over a considerable period of time. I had thought that at least their workers got a reasonably fair deal (for China anyway) but obviously not. Will definitely look to avoid their products from now on.

What is the alternative? To support another big multinational who probably does the same thing. Sorry to be a cynic but unless you buy something made in UK or EU (which of course you pay a big premium for, because we have strict minimum wage legislation) you have little idea what conditions it is made in.

YANBU. Apart from this, my teeth start itching whenever MIL produces Puppy Colin; hateful thing. I like WOW toys stuff much more anyway.
