The hazard
The product presents a serious risk of choking as the keyring, plastic hands, and feet can detach creating small parts. These small parts pose a choking hazard to young children, particularly those under 36 months of age who have a natural tendency to explore objects by placing them in their mouths. If the hands or feet detach, it is also possible for children to access the fibrous stuffing, which may also present a choking risk. Improvements are also required to product labelling and marking.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
What to do
The product is no longer available for sale.
