Why it's dangerous
ChokingInjuriesStrangulation
The toy contains small parts (beaded necklace and left leg) that can easily detach. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke. Moreover, the crown's points may cause injuries to the child. Finally, the beaded necklace is too long. It can become wrapped around the neck of a child, leading to strangulation.
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
