Who says Evil Is Not a Toy? Some fictional children's toys are so dangerous, they have no business being children's toys! Some clever (and/or crazy) minds may even use them to fight and kill people. Values Dissonance often comes into play, due to cultural perceptions both of what is and is not dangerous for kids and how long it takes for kids to "grow up." (Theodore Roosevelt reportedly could fire a gun at age 10, whereas most kids that age nowadays might still be playing with Play-Doh.) Many Mons could be considered the organic equivalent — just replace "toys" with "pets". For a specific Sub-Trope, see The Most Dangerous Video Game. The trope name is a pun on the My Little Pony series of girls' toys and the word panzer, which is German for "tank". Not to be confused with My Little Phony, nor with a Crossover between MLP and Girls und Panzer (although somebody has probably written that fanfic). Or with mein little tank. It's also not a Perverse Puppet or the like; a My Little Panzer is inherently dangerous to use, but it doesn't have to be malicious, or even living. Compare other failures to regulate safety in TV Land: No OSHA Compliance, No Product Safety Standards, Happy Fun Ball, Social Services Does Not Exist, There Are No Therapists. Compare specific cases of toys as weapons: Killer Yo-Yo and Battle Tops. Not to be confused with wonderful toys (although those are often effectively the same thing). Can overlap with Merchandising the Monster, if the toys are made at the image of an already dangerous and evil person or force. |

Narbonic: In "A Week of December 18th Story", a parody of A Christmas Story, little (future Mad Scientist) Helen's Christmas toy of choice is the BioBeam 8000 gamma irradiator with 5-liter containment chamber, cesium 137 radiation source, optional remote monitoring station, and a thing on top that tells the time. This is apparently a real piece of equipment. Except for the thing on the top that tells the time. |

Taken to the extreme with LBX: Little Battlers eXperience. Miniature LBX robots have a military application and have been used in assassinations before. However, due to the creation of the Fortified Cardboard that provides safe fighting arenas, it has become the most popular children's toy the world has ever seen! Lampshaded since LBX were banned for safety reasons before those arenas came around. | |

How to Be a Superhero warns the would-be superhero about putting his name to merchandise without checking its safety, citing such previous PR disasters as Captain Feline and Blackie the Wonder-Cat's "Kitty-Fun" playsets (a variety of ways for a child to torture a cat) and the Mr Inferno dressing-up kit (one costume, one bottle of kerosene, one box of matches). | |

Viz has done many parodies of General Jumbo and featured one-off strips about evil living toys and similar things. Regular strip "Tinribs" is based around a young boy's "robot" (actually glued together from random parts and unable to do anything mechanical) which is typically used to mutilate or kill the boy's teacher in every story. Another recurring strip using the trope was "Tommy Salter's Chemical Capers" about a boy who would perform horrifically dangerous, and usually fatal to others, experiments with his chemistry set. | |

Taken in a rather literal sense with Girls und Panzer. The tank Combat in real WWII tanks is seen as an appropriate activity for little girls. The main character, Miho Nishizumi, is a sixteen-year-old veteran. Its prequel manga Little Army has tanks being driven around by 10 year olds! Der Film shows Miho's bedroom at her house... which contains a Panzerfaust, of all things. Decorated with a pink ribbon. |

On CSI: NY, an exploding-cigar murder was traced back to a young man who'd targeted a back-of-the-comic-book toy dealer. As kids, he and his best friend had taken a comic book ad's boastful claim that a cardboard submarine could take you on "amazing undersea adventures" literally, and she drowned in a lake. | |

Robotomy: "The Playdate" has Tickle Me Psycho, a My Pet Monster-meets-Tickle Me Elmo-style doll with the screechy, nasal voice of Gilbert Gottfried who acts like a complete Jerkass to robot kids (in the commercial, he stole a kid's drink, drank it, and tossed the cup in the child's face, ripped another kid's fingers off and ate them, and tore a third kid's "I Love You" card and kicked him. It ends with Tickle Me Psycho saying "I can't stand kids!") and is plotting a war against them. Given that Insanus' society treats random homicide as barely worth noticing and peacefulness as a form of mental illness, this type of advertising passes largely withot comment. | |

In the Hotel Transylvania: The Series episode "Hide and Shriek", Mavis discovers her old Demented Debbie doll who turns out to be very clingy, wants to have fun all the time, and is quite difficult to get rid of. The commercials for her show her abusing a werewolf girl, wanting to play with her even when the latter doesn't want to, and still pestering her after 800 years because the doll's batteries last forever. When Mavis's Debbie kidnaps her friends, Mavis buys another Debbie to chase the original away. | |

In The Simpsons: Homer buys Maggie an Army Base playset with actually working, explosive missiles. When Marge points out how dangerous it is, Homer claims it's perfectly safe, but is stabbed, zapped, and shot by the toy. Another example was a cereal with a jagged steel letter 'O' in it. It was supposed to be a prize, not eaten, but the regular cereal was not much better. At the end of the episode, Bart reveals to Lisa the new and improved Krusty cereal: "Flesh-eating bacteria in every box!" The Krusty doll in "Treehouse of Horror III" has a switch that lets you flip it between good and evil. To be fair, it came from a creepy store of evil goods and the warning is quite explicit that it carries a horrid curse; it likely wasn't meant for anyone, let alone children, and Homer is just being Homer when he hands it to Bart. Most of Krusty's toys were dangerous in some sense or other. This is because Krusty is such a corporate whore that he'll put his name and approval on anything that he's paid to, no matter how dangerous, and his die-hard fans will buy anything with his name on it, regardless of quality or safety. A gag in the comics has a large stock of knockoff nacho cheese dispensers in the image of Krusty which the police easily deemed as counterfeit because they worked perfectly with no hazards at all. One of the least dangerous products with his brand is a fully-functioning Geiger counter marketed as a toy, which very appropriately responds to Homer's homemade nuclear reactor: In a few episodes, Bart uses pranking equipment kits from a company called "Lil' Bastard". The kits that have appeared on screen have included: clock-tampering gear, methods to cause mass hysteria, smoke bombs and a frighteningly highly efficient (as in "accomplishes its job in two seconds") brainwashing kit. This is available to anybody who can afford it, including kids and cult members. One of Martin Prince's inventions is a cute robotic seal pup toy which is a huge hit with the retirement home, which makes the residents happier. However, if you open the back panel and plug a wire in the wrong place, it becomes terrifying and violent. A funeral home planned to rewire all of the toys to this in order to stop the elderly from living longer because of their newfound happiness. |

In Dawn of the Dragons, several of the familiars the player can collect are toys created by the gnome inventor Bosso. Said toys are usually faithful reproductions of World Raid boss monsters, like the toy based on an acid-spitting dragon that also spits acid, the toy based on a dragon with retractable spines that also has retractable spines, and the toy based on a dragon that literally overflowed with power that is also Made of Explodium. According to the flavor text of various items, at least one child was nearly killed when she hugged the spiky dragon toy too hard (luckily there was a cleric with healing magic nearby). One jerk accidentally killed his mistress with the exploding dragon toy, and then used another one to kill his wife on purpose. Then he got run over by a carriage and went to hell for his sins. He had the gall to blame Bosso for it claiming that he wouldn't have been tempted to commit murder if Bosso's toys didn't make murder so easy. Bosso also made a dragon toy big enough to ride (which is a mount in-game) that is covered with spikes, claiming they are a safety feature. When the player character calls Bosso out on it, he claims that he meant that the spikes would make it safer for the person riding it, not the people in its way. Bosso is perfectly aware that his toys are dangerous. He just thinks that safety isn't as important as making his toys as accurate as possible. | |

The Beano had a long-running strip featuring "General Jumbo", a schoolboy who had a fully functional remote-control set of toy soldiers and military vehicles created for him by a friendly neighbourhood Mad Scientist. He used them to fight crime. A number of British comic creators have gone on to create Expies, most notably Robin "Toybox" Slinger and her father "Colonel Lilliput" in Top 10 and "General Tubbs" in Jack Staff. | |

Battle B-Daman The B-Daman launchers cause some pretty painful (if minor) injuries in the anime. Real life versions can put an eye out under certain circumstances. This escalates, and by Crash B-Daman, the battles are essentially gunfights, with even the B-Daman designs becoming more weaponlike and more damage being done. |

The original version of Megatron transformed from a robot into a Walther P-38 pistol (specifically modeled after the prop guns from The Man from U.N.C.L.E.). More recent incarnations have transformed from a robot into a dinosaur, a jet, or a tank (for example) so that his action figures don't (legally) need to be bright orange. This is mainly in the United States when realistic firearm replicas that didn't have orange caps or tips were outlawed in 1988, as Japan still reissues the original toy on a regular basis, and his two Masterpiece releases both transform into Walther P-38s (the first was oversized, while the second was more properly-proportioned). In addition, the Japanese version fired small plastic pellets. The Transformers Classics got around this problem by having Megatron◊ transform into a gun resembling a Nerf N-Strike Maverick◊ instead of a real gun. | |

Harry Potter gives a lot of magical versions of mundane children toys that definitely amp up normal games: Playing cards that explode, albeit without much force. The game in question is called Exploding Snap. Gobstones, marbles that squirt nasty-smelling liquid in your face when you lose a point. On the non-magical side of things, Dudley owns a small, working tank that he once ran over the neighbor's dog with. Wizard's Chess gives us chess pieces animated to act as real persons, viciously attacking the opposition. The Power Trio are later forced to play a human equivalent and discover it isn't any different. Bludgers in the Quidditch games. They can give somebody a pretty nasty concussion if they hit you in the head, and knocking you off your broomstick at certain heights is also dangerous in and of itself. Fanged Frisbees, living frisbees that have teeth on their edges. How about the actual broomsticks? They can travel over 100 mph, they fly more than high enough to cause fatal falls, and kids ride them without any licenses, seat belts, safety equipment, lights, or air traffic rules. Even in blinding rain and thunderstorms. Neville, Harry, and a few other characters actually sustain broken bones and concussions from falling off brooms, but nobody in the wizard world seems to think broomsticks are dangerous. Justified, since wizarding magic allows broken bones and such to be healed with a flick of a wand or potions (heck, the Potters became wealthy through inventing some potions). Even missing bones can be regrown overnight with a magic potion. Furthermore, first-years (generally) aren't allowed to have their own brooms; in fact, that's generally when they have lessons for using them over the course of the year.note Harry was given special dispensation because of his natural flying skills, to the point that he was actually named Seeker of the Quidditch team—a position specifically requiring excellent flying skills with a broomstick. There are toy brooms that only hover a few feet off the ground. Love Potions. As illustrated in Half-Blood Prince, they are incredibly potent and ripe for abuse, being not much more than magical date rape drugs. They are apparently unregulated other than not being allowed on school grounds, and are openly marketed and sold to children in a joke shop. This one has not gone unnoticed by the author or the characters; Harry at one point compares love potions to Dark magic. And it turns out, Voldemort was born because of one (maybe). |

Tank Girl. Sam's Danger Ball is one of these, much to Iggy Pop's surprise. It shoots out blades when anyone claps their hands nearby. From what we see, it appears to be a self-defense tool to fend off potential rapists or other kinds of perverts (which Iggy's character was). | |

Coreline: While other examples exist throughout the setting, a specific one appears on the short story Legends of the Fourth of July (Coreline): The "Fakehuggers", mechanical replicas of the Facehugger that are programmed to act just like the real thing, except that they knock their victims out with non-lethal sonic stunners instead. Meant as a practical joke, the scared reactions of people to the Fakehuggers' attacks (which included various fatal heart attacks) drove their developing company to ruin. | |

There are two major groups that create these in the SCP universe. Dr. Wondertainment creates toys that often just fly in the face of physics, and are safe when used properly. Of course, one of them has such features as a fire drill, a boom ray, an Atomic Grenade, and Robo Dance. The Factory, on the other hand, appears to make its various objects with malicious intent behind them, and are very dangerous even when used properly. Many other toy SCPs exist, some just weird, some threaten the world itself. | |

An episode of Yin Yang Yo! had a villain who manufactured these because he loved money and hated children. The most memorable and blatant were probably "Eyebiters", which were exactly what they sound like. | |

Small Soldiers: This is the premise of the movie. The reason the toys are so dangerous is that they used military-grade artificial intelligence so the toys could "play back", but nobody bothered to program that military-grade artificial intelligence with stuff like The Laws and Customs of War, so the soldiers came out as the single-minded psychopaths they designed (see lawn darts for another such brainfart). Ironically, though, the monstrous, presumably intended to be "villainous" Gorgonite toys are rather personable, since they started out as educational toys that were hastily repurposed as an enemy for the Commando Elite. At the end, the Corrupt Corporate Executive decides to recoup his losses on the toys by "sticking a few zeroes on the end of the price" and selling them to the Army for use in brush wars in South America, making an inversion. | |

Discworld: Something similar happens when Death substitutes for the local Santa equivalent in Hogfather. A little girl asks for a sword (as well as a few other gender-abnormal toys). He gives her one (Death does not have a very good grasp of parenting), although he's eventually convinced to transmute it into a wooden one. Thud!: Lampshaded where Sam Vimes suspects there are intruders in his house and is looking for a weapon. Sadly, he's in his son's bedroom, and he notes he and his wife completely overlooked the range of toys with sharp steel parts. He settles for the leg of a rocking horse. |

Richie Rich once had a nightmare in which an experimental drug that removed the need for sleep caused his father to lose his mind and lock him in his room, with guards posted outside, while he planned to Take Over the World. To stop him, Richie and his friends used a life-sized toy tank that shot pies at the guards, then put his dad and them to sleep with "toy" stun guns. | |

Ibáñez's Mortadelo y Filemón features an instance in its chapter El caso del bacalao, when the title agents get involved in a fight with mafioso Lucrecio Borgio. Mortadelo holds him in gunpoint with a rubber gun, to which Borgio just laughs in the belief it is a bad attempt at a bluff. Mortadelo then surprisingly shoots him in the face, revealing the gun was perfectly functional despite being made of rubber. | |

Very minor example in Doc McStuffins: the sword of an action figure in the show is shown to be sharp enough to rip through a plush toy when said plush is swung into the sword in error in the same episode. Given that plush fabric is usually pretty strong material, the sword couldn't have been made of plastic. | |

In Ben 10: Alien Force, a little alien loses her toy. The toy in question can shapeshift, regenerate, and mimic other people and aliens' special abilities. Not only that but it's actually more technologically advanced than the Omnitrix. Justified since said toy belonged to the Nalijan, a race of Energy Beings who lived on a higher plane of existence and could see in multiple dimensions (apparently, only 26 dimensions are important). | |

On Johnny Test, everything made by Wacko Toys is intentionally dangerous to children, because the CEO hates children, and his employees have no problem with it beyond greed. Examples include a board game that punches you if you land on a certain square, another board game where if you mess up you get electrocuted, a bag of tacks, a robot that starts off friendly before trapping kids within their own houses until they're 18, an exploding frisbee, mechanical alligators, helium-based gum, Made of Explodium gum, and a prison disguised as a video game. Who wouldn't want to play such wholesome games as "Left Hook", "Don't Shock Yourself", and "Bag O' Tacks"? |

In the pre-war backstory of Fallout: New Vegas. REPCONN sold rocket souvenirs filled with actual radioactive rocket fuel, which kids mistook for Nuka-Cola, and subsequently developed a sickness called the "REPCONN Shakes". They subsequently unloaded their stock at the Dino-Bite gift shop in Novac, where they sat for the next 200 years. Euclid's C-Finder is a toy gun that is actually the target designator for the Archimedes II Kill Sat. Not quite a straight example because it wasn't designed as a toy, some kid just found it in the post-apocalyptic rubble and used it as one until the Player Character gets hold of it. Luckily for the kid, Archimedes II itself isn't activated unless you do something about it. Sure a BB gun can be dangerous, but no normal BB gun compares to the "Abilene Kid LE BB gun". It deals the typical low damage of a normal one, but it has the same Critical damage of a normal Sniper Rifle. |

The IRL version Beyblade is a downplayed example. While nowhere near as bad as they anime portrays, always make sure the components for the Beyblades are on tight and never stand too close to the arenas while playing. Stray Beyblade parts and/or the Beyblades flying out of the arena after a big hit have been known to cause some nasty bruises. Burst Beyblades aren't as bad since they're meant to come apart, and aren't under as much pressure by the time they, well, burst. | |

Realistic toy guns are an interesting example in that most are perfectly harmless on their own; the danger comes from how other people react to them. You know the scene in Die Hard where Powell talks about how he accidentally shot a kid who was waving around a lifelike toy gun? That absolutely happens in real life. The notorious orange caps were found somewhat ineffective, as enterprising criminals or unwise kids would simply paint either real guns to look fake or fake guns to look real. This is why modern toy guns almost always look like weird sci-fi laser guns; it makes it much easier for police officers and other people to quickly and easily distinguish between fake and real guns. | |

Among the many themed shops in the various lands of Neopets, the toy shop in Darigan Citadel specializes in these, with its Wicked Toymaker shopkeeper describing its items as "clockwork wonders and other toys that will amaze and delight". Among its wares (full list here) are board games that ooze acid, plenty of things with spikes, and dice rigged to always roll the wrong number. Despite their nature, playing with them will not actually have any ill effects on one's Neopets — though whether this is due to mere Gameplay and Story Segregation or Neopets routinely surviving far worse isn't clear. | |

Subsequently in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, after you buy Zero's shop, all of the three missions you must do for Zero involve My Little Panzers. The first involves defending from a swarm of RC planes dropping bombs with a minigun, and the second has you using a prototype RC biplane armed with an infinite-ammo cannon to kill employees of Berkley RC, Zero's arch-rival in the business of RC toys. Serious business indeed. Oh, and the third? Seems like the actual use for these things: a car tries to drive a road into a base. Berkley's helicopter drops obstacles that your helicopter has to remove. Bentley also has actual tanks shooting at his car, albeit with low-powered ammo for their size. You have access to antitank bombs. |

Though never outright addressed, some of the toys in Toy Story seem a bit too dangerous for little kids to play with: The Buzz Lightyear figure has wings that can pop out with enough force to tear through duct tape like it was wet tissue. The helmet flips back and forth rather forcibly, enough to make Woody cry out in pain when his hand got caught. While his laser certainly isn't a gun, the singular point it makes suggests it is an actual laser pointer, which can easily blind a child for life. Stinky Pete's pickaxe is apparently sharp enough to cut through fabric and function as a screwdriver (he also tries to use it to cut Woody in pieces when the latter refuses to listen to Pete anymore), though he comes from a time when safety standards for toys weren't as strict. When an actual toyline based on Toy Story eventually released, the toys didn't play like the movie counterpart for obvious reasons. For example, the closest equivalent of the movie Buzz Lightyear toy (which come with a spaceship-shaped packaging) lacks pop-up wings, the helmets are flipped slowly, and it lacks the laser pointer. The Toy Story Toon "Small Fry" parodied the subject of recalled toys. One kids meal toy in the support group, a boxing turtle, was recalled because her fists can be shoot rather forcefully. The toy doesn't explain further, but after the turtle toy says "I was recalled because...", her fist flies off hitting another toy. |

A Dear Dumb Diary book features Jamie holding a yard sale. She mentions that some of the things being sold are toys no longer marketed as safe for kids. One of the toys drawn in her diary is “Mr. Puncture�, a doll with thumbtack-like spikes on his head, nose, and limbs. | |

Girl Genius presents... Castle Heterodyne nursery! With a doll of a Monster Clown to end all Monster Clowns (possibly by rolling them into one big clownball and then ripping it into ribbons). There was a tentative example in the form of Mr. Hissyfit, a mechanical snake that was given to Theopolous DuMedd as a baptismal gift by his aunt Lucrezia. Mr. Hissyfit went active during the ceremony, pushed the bishop into the punch bowl and tried to eat Theo's father. The reason this is a tentative example is that we do not know if this was a thoughtful gift or an elaborate assassination attempt. As seen here, Lucrezia had good reasons to hate Theo's parents, but also seems to have fond childhood memories of Mr. Hissyfit. |

Quite a few of these can crop up in Werewolf: The Apocalypse, usually as a result of Pentex's ongoing attempts to corrupt the world. Created and distributed by Avalon Inc, Pentex's resident toy business, many of these toys have been corrupted or infested by the power of the Wyrm, usually just for the sake of turning kids into sociopaths, but occasionally for more violent ends: for example, the Doctor Chuckles Surgery Kit, which not only magically imbues children with a lifetime of surgical knowledge, but comes complete with a syringe of paralyzing venom so they can "practice" on family members! | |

Medabots. The Medabots carry weapons that can damage the surrounding landscape, concrete and steel included. They're quite popular with the kids. Fortunately, the live weapons have only appeared in video games. However, this doesn't change the fact that the Medabots have self-healing capabilities and are VERY durable. If it weren't for the fact that their medals can be ejected with enough damage (or manually) these things could take over the world. At one point in the past there was an incident where Medabots went rogue and nearly destroyed the world. Oddly enough, Metabee has attacked his owner several times, with no lasting ill effects to the latter. Played even more straight with the Kilobots, because its creator and target audience are "Stop Having Fun" Guys who want Meda-Battles to be Curb-Stomp Battles with them as the ones doing the stomping. As such, the ones closest to the "mook" scale of power are still a chore to deal with and the really nasty ones are virtual Weapons of Mass Destruction. One episode has a Super Prototype Kilobot being accidentally released and going on a rampage that destroys a significant part of the city and the police just cannot stop. |

Gaston Lagaffe did this twice. One time he repaired a nephew's toy tank that shot sparks on the day there was a gas leak in the office. Another time, he made a working toy tank that shot tiny firecrackers and a toy bomber (that moved around the ceiling on wires) that dropped little bombs, to prove that kids need to learn what the real things are like. | |

The Venture Bros.: Subverted in the episode "Tag Sale, You're It": When Dr. Venture holds a yard sale, Henchman 21 almost cries upon seeing a real lightsaber for sale. Dr. Venture says it is a prototype, rejected by Kenner for being too costly and by the military for being a sword. 21 buys it immediately, and when an Escalating Brawl breaks out he decides to use his new toy to face down Venture's bodyguard. The sounds and visuals are appropriately badass, but when a swing connects, the beam turns out to be harmless, and he flees in terror. The episode "The Forecast Manufacturer" features a deranged supervillain engage with the Monarch and 21 in "the most dangerous game"—lawn darts. The win condition of the villain's version of the rules seems to simply be whenever someone gets their skull penetrated. |

Not for loners or anyone with Parental Issues." (And skipping school and going broke.) Note to Pegasus: never design a children's card game based on ancient Egyptian mythology. Especially if you have an ancient Egyptian Artifact of Doom implanted in your eye socket! Even worse near the start, where every game or toy was turned into a game that resulted in someone breaking psychologically. One wasn't Yami's fault, even; in "The Evil Dragon Cards", wannabe Imori tries to use the Soul Jar and the Dragon Card game to get ahold of the Millennium Puzzle; the dragons of the deck slowly consume the soul that gets trapped in the jar after losing the game. Yugi loses the first game, and Yami takes over. Imori loses to Yami, and the jar can only hold one soul at a time... |

Beyblade, no matter the version. With some of the things Beyblades do to each other in the stories, they wouldn't be approved for kids in most real countries. The real ones are much less dangerous, but you should always make sure the parts are on tight. It doesn't help that there are military helicopters in Metal Fusion designed to specifically launch Beyblades as weapons. Beyblades specifically used as weapons is as old as the second arc of the first season of the original series, when it's revealed the whole Chinese team are trained to use them as weapons. This discovery comes right after a Bruce Lee Clone showed up with a nunchaku-mounted Beyblade launcher. Then we get in Western Europe, where the top four bladers enter significant matches in full armour and include the launchers in functional weapons. By the final arc of season one it's almost expected that the Russian team tops that by having their Beyblade launcher looking like firearms and, in one case, being used as such (thankfully it was a single-shot sniper rifle). And then we have the Bit Beasts, which are powerful spirits that are inside the Beyblades and have the capacity to create incredibly powerful localized hurricanes, flash floods, lightning storms and in one occasion even a black hole that ate the stadium and a good chunk of the surrounding downtown area, apparently needing little more to be as destructive as a small nuke than the user being on the "right" mindset (anything from Hot-Blooded to a full-on "kill-whatever-is-annoying-me-and-damn-the-consequences" Villainous Breakdown). |

The Amazing World of Gumball: "The Game" was about a game that Gumball and Darwin created called Dodj or Daar, a game that affects real life like Jumanji. Some of the dares (Daar cards) in the game are, "juggle flaming knives," and, "drive the car from the back seat," and you have to pick a Dodj card if you choose not to do them. The Dodj card aren't any better though, one of them being, "no one is allowed to breathe until the game is over." "The Puppets" had Mighty Flyz, a parody of 90s flying toys. When Darwin activates one, it cuts through a fan, a lightbulb, and a ladder before flying out the window and hitting some power lines, a tree, and a bird. In "The Heart" there's Mr. Robinson's old toys, which include among other things a "space gun" with actual gunpowder and a fully functional atomic energy kit that blows up his house upon being dropped. The resulting explosion got him arrested for violating 14 international peace agreements. |

In "Bowser's Driver's License", during a Doofy the Dragon-themed McDonald's commercial, as if the burger with nails, broken glass, and a mousetrap wasn't bad enough, Doofy also advertises nine-millimeter guns as happy meal toys. In "Bowser Junior's Game Night 3", when Junior, Joseph, Cody, and Jeffy play "What's in Ned's Head?", Jeffy manages to find a real loaded gun in Ned's head.

In the 70's, Saturday Night Live had toy maker Irwin Mainway (played by Dan Aykroyd) appear on a consumer watchdog show called "Consumer Probe", and hopelessly defend his company's extremely dodgy and dangerous products, and drawing comparisons with the dangers of actual commonplace products. In one episode, he tried to defend a series of Halloween costumes, including "Johnny Space Commander Mask" (simply a plastic bag and a rubber band), "The Invisible Pedestrian" ("NOT FOR BLIND KIDS!"), "Johnny Combat Action Costume" (which comes with an actual working rifle, ammo not included. Allegedly popular in Detroit), and "Johnny Human Torch" (oil-soaked rags and an oversized torch. "It lights up the night!") | |

In Spider-Boy, Toy Soldier is a remote-controlled action figure intelligent enough to respond to voice commands while also having the Super-Adaptoid's ability to use the powers of any of the Avengers. This means it can flatten cars at Killionaire's behest with ease and can cross the distance between planets (albeit not as quickly as the Silver Surfer or Thor given its size). | |

In China, there are many street vendors who sell toy balloons based on characters that are popular with children, such as Spider-Man, SpongeBob SquarePants, Boonie Bears and Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf. However, those balloons are filled with hydrogen instead of helium; to anyone familiar with the Hindenburg disaster, you'll know why putting hydrogen into balloons is a very bad idea. | |

Robot Chicken: Some Real Life examples (like the pointy lawn darts, the Cabbage Patch Kid that bites fingers, or the dangerously hot Easy Bake Oven) show up in the "Island of Recalled Toys" sketch. The other toys are recalled for looking or sounding sexual, like the Buzz Lightyear cup with his straw positioned in a... suggestive matter (to make matters worse, the Cabbage Patch Kid bites it), and the Rad Repeatin' Tarzan doll. Another sketch has boy playing with a sapient Bop It toy that transforms into a real rifle and commands him to assassinate a politician. The toy ends up being sent to prison, but we don't see if Hasbro faces any consequences. |

The sci-fi movie Evolver features a robotic AI toy that just happens to have been installed with a state-of-the-art weapons-grade military AI chip; the robot is meant to be a harmless children's game, but it soon begins learning how to arm itself with more lethal weapons. The Evolver unit was originally a military battle robot prototype that was re-purposed after killing people in a field test. It got made into the grand prize for the top scorer of the Evolver VR Game so that they could play it in real life. The problem starts when its military programming that was left in gets reactivated by the protagonist's sister dramatically "dying" after it scores a "kill" on her and then getting back up. It realizes that its "weapons" aren't lethal, as they're "supposed" to be; to it, the Evolver game is a live fire War Game and refits itself to compensate. | |

Joked about in an episode of Mythbusters, in which the main duo were trying to determine whether a Hot Wheels car could defeat a real car in a short distance race down a hill, when both are running entirely on momentum. Both Adam and Jamie build their own custom toy cars for the purpose, with Adam's offering being effectively a block of lead with wheels. When Adam jokingly comes up with an advertisement for his creation, Jamie joins in, adding, "and if you throw it at your brother really hard, it could kill him!" | |

Several are VERY dangerous, including the Summer Funâ„¢ Backyard Flamethrower (which was actually recalled in-universe, but a few boxes were missed), exploding birthday cakes and power-up accessories that activate a spreading ring of fireballs and geyser-like explosions, with lethal results for enemy toys that get caught in their path. | |

My Life as a Teenage Robot: One episode has the Cluster deceiving Jenny into letting her image be used in the creation of action figures that would later attempt to destroy her. They were turned off at the end by a power switch; Brad refuses to believe Krackus would be stupid enough to control them through such a thing, leading Tuck to explain his incompetence to break Brad's Willing Suspension of Disbelief. Vexus later scolds Krackus for this design after they're defeated. An inversion of sorts from the same show is Killgore, a little wind-up toy robot with delusions of being a master criminal. Despite almost getting the better of Jenny a couple of times, no one usually takes him seriously, as he's too darn adorable. |

The main reason for missile launchers on US toys being nerfed, completely disabled, or having ridiculously long projectiles dates back to 1979, when a kid choked to death after firing a Battlestar Galactica (1978) Colonial Viper missile into his mouth, resulting in Mattel being sued and recalling the toyline. | |

South Park: The episode "Good Times with Weapons" has the boys trick a county fair vendor into selling them several dangerous ninja weapons. It ends in an Anvilicious note when their parents are more concerned with nudity (Cartman appeared naked under the delusion that he was invisible) than the fact they stabbed Butters in the eye with a ninja star. Other dangerous toys include: Chinpokomon (the toys themselves weren't dangerous, but they were pawns in a plot to brainwash kids into bombing Pearl Harbor), Wild Wacky Action Bike (the kid who tried to ride it in the commercial crashed into the underside of a truck), Alabama Man and Wife (teaches boys to be drunken, wife-beating trailer trash), Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset (teaches girls to be like Paris Hilton, and even comes with 14 hits of ecstasy), and a make-your-own Mr. Hankey playset, whose commercial was filmed in live-action. "Fun With Veal" has the "Mission Impossible Breaking and Entering Playset" which contains a real blowtorch and a cable to re-enact the iconic cable drop scene from the first film. While the boys do use it to break into a cattle ranch, it does explicitly say on the box that toy should not be used "for actual breaking and entering". |

In the Homestar Runner universe: It's implied that practically everything sold at Bubs' concession stand is highly unsafe and quite possibly illegal. The most overt example would be Hollerin' Jimmy's Hobby Kit, whose slogan is "We have no idea what's inside this box!" The Stab Yourself! Try not to stab yourself! That said, not everything Bubs sells is dangerous. The stuff he sells out back on the black market is quality goods. In fact, in his capacity as a black marketeer, he's so devoted to customer satisfaction (as opposed to his capacity as an official businessman, in which he relies on not having any competition) that if you specifically want something that will cause an allergic reaction, he'll sell you the allergenic stuff. Though he sold a Strong Bad piñata that was filled with... An example not related to Bubs is Strong Bad naming his preferred kind of Free Prize at the Bottom as "anything heavy and pointy enough to do lasting damage to the face". He uses a die-cast toy car with a chainsaw on it to demonstrate. On Homestar. |

Downplayed in Have Space Suit – Will Travel, Kip accidentally sets fire to the barn where he has his lab. His mother worries but his father merely comments that one should be careful about making explosives in a frame building. However, while the book's target audience was middle-schoolers protagonist Kip was in his last year of highschool, old enough that entrusting him with flammable or corrosive substances wouldn't be considered out and out negligence even in this day and age. This also justifies the fact he was able to obtain a supply of go-pills for his refurbished spacesuit's emergency survival kit without much difficulty, although obviously there's a bit of Values Dissonance there. | |

The foot-tall Robos of Custom Robo are actually pretty harmless themselves, despite being able to shoot lasers, bombs, or swords. They can only work within specialized arenas called Holosseums. Except illegal parts can do rather horrible things to whoever uses them, and the local Cthulhu happens to have accidentally possessed one. These behaviors might be excusable since they're not well known. The part where losing in a Holosseum knocks you head first into the ground and quite often knocks you unconscious might not pass the CSPA muster. That last bit happens only when the "safety switch" is off, which allows the robos to use their abilities to the fullest extent. Regular, day-to-day Holosseum battles are massive nerfs of the robos so that no one is hurt. Illegal parts are actually capable of killing someone if the switch is off (though this is rare, even with the ridiculously powerful illegal parts)... this is why they're illegal. | |

In 1987-1988, there was a line of Transformers with the ability to "spark" that would produce light, sound, and exhaust similar to real engines and weapons. They work via an internal steel wheel rubbing a flint, much like a cigarette lighter. Skating Barbie dolls had similar roller blades to spark up the ground. Needless to say, this gimmick was quickly dropped after such a Barbie doll caused a child's underwear to catch on fire. It eventually made a comeback for the Transformers: Age of Extinction toyline in 2014, but in a way that wouldn't allow the sparks to escape the toy. | |
