What is the danger
The elastic material used for the impact area of the projectile (the suction cup) can be detached with a traction force of less than 60 Newtons and the kinetic energy reached by the projectile exceeds the permitted maximum. There is a risk of external injuries if the projectile’s protective suction cup is removed and the projectile hits someone in the eyes or another part of the body. The detached suction cup could lead to a risk of choking. This danger is heightened by the fact that children usually lick the suction cap to moisten it, so that it sticks better to the surface it hits on impact. This product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the European Standard.
