Flying Saucer
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
This Spider-Man flying saucer toy has been recalled due to electric shock hazards. The product consists of a black plastic flying saucer with remote control trigger gun and a transformer/adaptor charger unit. The recall was triggered by two safety issues: the plug pins become accessible and make contact with socket outlets when partly inserted, and the two-pin transformer can be connected to the adapter in three different incorrect positions (L to E, L to N, or E to N), making safe operation impossible to assure. Additionally, the toy and packaging lack proper manufacturer identification marks, and the product may be counterfeit.
A sales ban has been ordered by authorities for this product (Item No 2008). The recall was initiated by the United Kingdom. The source does not specify what remedy is available to consumers who have already purchased this product.

The product poses a risk of electric shock because:- the pins of the plug part of the adaptor are accessible when it is partly inserted into a class 0 socket-outlet and the pins make contact with the contacts, - the charger unit consist of a 2 pin transformer unit which is then connected to an adaptor plug. The safe operation of the charger unit cannot be assured as it is possible to connect the 2 pin transformer unit in any of 3 different positions on the adaptor (i.e. L to E, L to N, E TO N). In addition the toy or the packaging was not marked with the name, trademark or identification mark of the manufacturer or responsible vendor.
