I don't think you know what you're talking about. There was a voluntary recall prior to the CPSC action to improve the language on the warnings. Additionally, Buckyballs were never sold to toy stores, nor were they marketed as toys, nor were they allowed to be sold in the toy section of stores that carried other kinds of products.
I am not sure where you got the idea that the companies were trying to sell these thing to children. They never attempted to do that, and if they had they would be liable for millions in damages. They did everything they could to save their business and cooperated with the CPSC in every possible way.
Disclaimer: I am not directly involved with these companies but I am a freelancer who built and ran the Buckyballs website for almost four years.
