2014 Nintendo Super Mario Stuffed Doll (#2) – Made in China: 170 ppm Antimony (commonly found in stuffed animals.)

Antimony content in stuffed animals, fabric and polyfil is not regulated (as far as I understand.) Antimony is pervasive throughout plastics in our environment – from plastic food packaging to plastic-based (synthetic) fabrics to plastic stuffings in stuffed items (like dolls, pillows and quilts.)
