Risk Description

The instructions for a correct assembly of the toy are lacking in a comprehensible language and the required warnings are absent. The product is highly flammable and the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. Children may wear the costume close to an ignition source and the costume may catch fire, resulting in burns. Due to the absence of instructions for assembly, wearing the hood may lead to strangulation. If a child plays with the packaging, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose, causing the child to suffocate. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
