Hazard

The products present a serious risk of choking as small parts, particularly the wheels and dowels, can be easily removed with minimal force and can fit into a truncated cylinder. A young child may place the small part in their mouth and the parents/carers may not notice in time, with the small part able to block a child’s airways. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Remedy

The products have been destroyed at the border.
