Australian officials removed unsafe Miniso toys lacking battery safety labels, citing choking risks, and referred the company to regulators.
Australian consumer safety officials have warned about Miniso toys—like Disney keychains, Labubu plushies, and a Harry Potter night light—after finding they lack required safety labels for small button batteries, which can cause choking or internal injuries if swallowed.
Despite prior alerts, non-compliant items were still on shelves, prompting officials to remove them manually.
Miniso, with 17 stores in Victoria and five in New South Wales, has been referred to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.
Mandatory warnings are legally required, and violations can lead to fines up to $50 million.
Authorities urge parents to be cautious, though it's unclear if the same products are sold in New South Wales.
