Risk
This toy poses a serious risk of:- choking because it contains small parts which can break off and fit wholly in the small parts cylinder;- injuries (blockage in the intestines) because after being swallowed the parts can expand as they pass through the digestive tract which could result in blockage in the intestines. The parts expand in all dimensions more than 50%.This toy does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
