Golden Link's Fantastic Four drinking cups and Captain America popcorn helmet containers with LED lights were sold as souvenirs at AMC and other movie theaters nationwide. They were recalled because children can easily access the button cell batteries, which can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns, and death if swallowed, and they lack required warning labels.
