For those wondering what is happening with the UK towards illegal toys you may be interested to hear that ToyNewsMagazine are reporting that "In one of Newham Trading Standards' biggest-ever hauls, officers
confiscated about 2000 toys. They include unsafe flashing babies'
dummies, children's neckties which light up, toy dogs, rabbits and
airplanes, puffer balls and sabre lights.
The illegal toys,
which do not have safety warnings, are shoddily made and fall apart.
Some reveal sharp metal spikes and nails and others have cords and
balls which could easily choke a young child to death. Officers swooped
on a house in the borough which was being used as a storehouse. The
address, in the Straford area, has not been revealed for legal reasons
and the toys are being independently tested."
