- Hazard
- The intended use of the toy, has been determined by virtue of its function, dimension and characteristics as intended for children under 36 months. The toy was incorrectly marked with a warning not to give to children under 36 months which conflicted with its intended use. The online listings stated the toy was suitable for children of all ages, so a parent or supervisor would reasonably assume the toy was suitable for and could be given to children under 36 months as no other warning was present on-line.
- The toy presents a choking hazard as when tested it was found to have male connectors which can easily detach to produce small parts which fit inside the small parts cylinder. The toy contains a removable small ball which would obstruct the airways leading to suffocation were a young child to put the ball into their mouth.
- The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
- Corrective action
- The product has been recalled from end users and withdrawn from the market.
- The listings have been removed by online marketplaces including eBay, Amazon, Wish, OnBuy and Fruugo.
