Star Wars Storm Trooper kids outfit withdrawn over fears it may go up in flames
The European Commission has warned that tots"could suffer burns" if the"easily flammable" costume catches fire while being wornA STAR Wars fancy-dress outfit for kids in the character of an "Execution Trooper" has been withdrawn from sale amid fears the material may go up in flames.
The Commission adds that outfit's "flame propagation" - the ease and quickness with which it could catch alight - is "too high".The affected batch has the following code: 8 83028 23993, and the lot number: No 7045. A spokesperson for eBay said: “The safety of our customers is paramount and we do not tolerate the listing of non-compliant items by sellers.
UK retailer PartyDelights.co.uk says it has removed the same costume - but with a different batch code - from sale as a precaution, and adds that it will offer customers a full refund of the £30.99 paid.
