A "Star Wars" Christmas tree ornament was recalled Thursday by Hallmark because of the risk of mold exposure.

The ornament features Cad Bane -- a character from "Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett" -- with a brown hat, brown jacket, brown pants, a green face and blue cuffs. The brown paint on the exterior of the figurine did not fully dry before packaging, causing mold to grow on the ornament, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
