RE: The tariff classification of a “Little Fix it Toolbox”, a “Kellogg’s Deluxe Breakfast Set”, and “Pop Up Pets” all made in China.

Dear Ms. Chip:

In a letter dated October 5, 1999 you requested a tariff classification ruling on three articles. Samples of the three products were provided.

The first article, a “Little Fix it Toolbox”, item #51004 consists of a plastic tote box approximately 8” long, 6” wide, 2.5” deep. The tote box has a carrying handle and comes with various child size plastic tools. The tools included are a hammer, screwdriver, wrench, pliers, handsaw and a power drill. There are two pressure sensitive labels provided so that the child’s name can be attached to the tote. All of the articles are contained in a single package.

The second article, the “Kellogg’s Deluxe Breakfast Set”, item #42437 consists of sixteen separate items imitating some breakfast food products sold by the Kellogg Company. There are representative boxes of popular cereals, pancakes, waffles, pop-tarts, and milk. Also included are plastic utensils, bowls, dishes, and a small plastic statue of “Tony”.

There are four buttons also along the top of the product used to open the cover by releasing the spring. The child must learn to press, slide, or turn the proper button for the animal to pop upwards from the box.
