Joplin, MO– The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) http://www.cpsc.gov/ and Precious Moments Inc., of Carthage, Missouri, have voluntarily recalled the Precious Moments Angel Tree Toppers due to a threat of overheating and igniting fire.

No injuries in connection with the recalled product have been reported. Two instances were reported of the tree topper overheating. The tree topper is a 10-inch tall vinyl angel with LED lighted wings. The angel is white, gold, and yellow, and holds either a star or set of balls. The Precious Angel tree topper was sold at Menards, Shopko and Blain’s Farm and Fleet nationwide form August 2009 through December 2009 for the amount of $18.
