⚠️ Riziko

This product poses a risk of choking because even though the product is a decoration, its foreseeable use in a manner not intended means that it needs to be as safe as a stuffed animal intended for children under 3 years because children will think it is a toy. The right leg and the nose broke at an applied force of 33 N and 11 N respectively, and should have been able to withstand 88 N. They are small parts which may be swallowed.
