A children’s toy lightsaber which had lead in its paint has been pulled from sale.

The European Commission has sent out a product alert for the Beamz Light Up Toy Sword, stating it does not meet toy safety standards.

The alert, which is described as “serious”, states: “The silver paint of the product contains lead (measured value: 112 mg/kg). A child may put the toy in the mouth.

“Exposure to lead is harmful for human health and cause developmental neurotoxicity.”

A spokesman for online retailer Amazon confirmed it has removed the toy from sale.
