WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using NLFGUW electric gel ball blaster toy guns. The toy guns fail to comply with federal safety regulations for projectile toys, so that the projectile’s impact can injure a child’s eye.
The CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, US TK, of China, but the firm has not been responsive to CPSC’s request for a recall of this product.
The toy guns were sold in pink camo and came with goggles, a USB charger, gel beads, a gel bead hopper, a connector, a gun head, a rechargeable battery, a USB cable and a target. “NLFGUW M416 ASSAULT RIFLE” and “GEL BALL BLASTER” are printed on the package. The toy guns were sold online at www.amazon.com from April 2023 through September 2024 for about $29.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the toy guns immediately and dispose of them in accordance with local disposal requirements. Do not sell or give away these hazardous toy guns.
