⚠️ Risk

null The product poses the risk of:- Injuries due to the presence of sharp elements: the wire yarn representing antenna on the hood of the costume does not withstand the required bending; - Strangulation due to the presence of a fixed ring (attached to the hood) which is too long;- Suffocation due to the presence of an impermeable plastic bag (the bag containing the hood) which is not thick enough and may cause obstruction of the airway from the mouth and nose. The product does not comply with the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
