    I completed my claim over 6 months ago, how long is it supposed to take to receive a voucher or check or whatever?

    I filed my claim as well back in April 2010 and have been getting nothing but the run-around. It took my wife and daughter more than 2 days to gather and box-up this $250 claim. Now all phone calls are being answered by smart ass represenatives from a “third party” who claim they have no control over the case and refuse give further contact information.
    Mattel should be banned from operating in the US.

    It has been a year since I spent a few days comparing exact model numbers for this recall and sent in a large box valued more than $300. This summer I contacted a representative and confirmed they received the box but no information on the status of my claim or a time frame for when we can receive compensation. I guess the lawyers my have their share and are in no hurry to distribute the funds to the claim holders. The settlement site does a poor job of communicating the current status of the case or distribution of funds.
