IF the design was made to hide the batteries better or just leave them exposed, it would not have been as big a deal. The problem was that they used 4 D batteries in a row and then used black tape over them to hide it but the wires comign out of the tape was visable, so if you looked quick and didnt know the character, it looked the a cartoon design giving you the finger with a stick of dynamite taped up under it.

i saw the news last night, they were put in 10 cities around the country, and around 40 per city, yet only boston actually had bomb squads blow them up, lol.
