Description
Two plastic toys in the shape of an elephant, with a transparent plastic drum filled with polystyrene balls in colours green, yellow, white and pink and a frog shaped plug which is easily removed. The drum spins and the wheels underneath the legs move when a string at the end of the toy is pulled. The elephants are attached to a soft plastic tube of sweets in colours blue, green, yellow and pink. A colourful sticker is attached to the toy with a picture of a baby elephant, stars, paw prints and the inscription “no.8857”and "Made in China". The toy aeroplane is made of pink and green plastic and is also attached to a plastic tube filled with sweets.
Risk
The product poses a risk of choking because of small parts (frog shaped plastic drum cover, small polystyrene balls from the drum, wheels, plastic cap on sweets tube and plastic attached to the cord) which fit entirely within the small parts cylinder. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71.
