Easy Death Oven - Recall Kids

Hasbro has recalled almost one million Easy-Bake Ovens because kids can get their hands stuck inside and easily burn them.  29 injuries reported so far, 5 with burns.

Here is the recall notice.

Still no word on how dangerous it is to actually eat anything "baked" in one of these.

Hasn't the Easy Bake Oven been around forever? Has the design changed such that kids can get their hands stuck? Or is it just that there are enough reports and outrage now to warrant a recall?

Apparently the design has changed. The recall is only for toys sold between May 2006 through February 2007. Perhaps the bear trap inside was a bad move.
