⚠️ Risk

null The product poses a risk of choking because small parts can easily be detached and swallowed by children. In addition, the end part attached to the fishing rod contains a small magnet with a high magnetic flux and can become easily detached. If a child swallows this part and other metallic objects, they could attract one another causing intestinal blockage or perforation. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and with the relevant European standard EN71-1.
