Hazard

The suction cups contain an excessive concentration of bis-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values: 2.4% and 14% by weight, respectively); these phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to the reproductive system. In addition, the suction cups of the projectiles can be easily detached, and a child can put them in the mouth and choke. Furthermore, there are no warnings in the toy about the danger of aiming at the eyes or face, which could cause injuries, especially to the eyes. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation, nor with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive, nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
