Plastic toy - Swimmers set

  • Brand Dasini

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

The Dasini Swimmers Set is a plastic toy crocodile in blue, green, and yellow colors that moves when a key is turned to make its front legs swim. The toy weighs 25 grams and measures 145 x 90 x 41 millimeters. It was notified for recall by Lithuania because the start key and front legs can be easily detached from the toy and fit entirely into a small parts test cylinder, posing a choking and injury risk to children. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and European standard EN 71.

The recall notice indicates that measures were ordered against the economic operator responsible for the product (model 738, made in China), though the specific date these measures took effect is unknown. The recall record does not specify what remedy consumers should pursue or what actions they should take if they have purchased this product.
