Hazard

During the testing of two arrows, both of the suction cups detached at forces less than the specified minimum. Children may place the suction cup in or near their mouth to lick and/or moisten it so that it sticks better to the intended impact surface and if swallowed, the detached suction cup poses a potential suffocation or asphyxiation hazard to a child of any age. Also, the kinetic energy of the arrows was found to exceed the limit of 0.08 joules and the packaging does not bear the appropriate warnings. Some of the required documentation was not present. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Remedy

All goods were seized from the retail premises and the product has been recalled from end users.
