Hasbro Inc. is voluntary recalling a model of its Nerf Blasters because a child's skin could get caught in moving parts.

Hasbro says a movable plunger on the Nerf N-Strike Recon CS-6 Blaster could pull the user's skin during firing of the toy.

There have been two reported pinching incidents in Canada and more than 40 incidents of bruising, abrasions and pinching in the United States.

The toy bears a model number of 63552 (and a UPC code of 653569272021) on the packaging.

The toy is made in China and sold at Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, Zellers, discount stores and toy stores from November 2007 to August 2008.

Consumers are asked to take the toy away from children and contact Hasbro for a free cylindrical cover to prevent additional injuries
