Bought "Silly Shotz", a toy slingshot with foam balls and when my daughter pulled back the launcher the strink untied and she hit herself in the face extremely hard. Her lip is red and swollen.

My six year old child was gifted an Original Koosh Sharp Shot toy which has an electronic target and rubberized Koosh Flingers which are soft rubberized balls with rubber band like attachments that are sling shot at the target using the shooters to loop the rubber band around and pull back the ball to aim at the target. My child pulled back on a Koosh Flinger from a shooter but accidentally let go of the hard plastic shooter instead of the Koosh Flinger. The hard plastic shooter flipped around the rubber band part of the Koosh Flinger and struck him hard in the face. It just missed his eye and could blind any child. The Original Koosh Sharp Shot manual says the product is from PlayMonster, LLC, and is licensed by Hasbro, and that Koosh is a trademark of Oddzon, Inc.

A 14 year old boy purchased a Mega Rocket toy from Winn-Dixie in Jacksonville, FL, on October 16, 2011. On that same date, the boy launched the rocket using the instructed method for a single individual. In the launch process, he was struck in the left eye by the Mega Rocket and experienced severe injury and blindness in his eye as a result thereof. The Mega Rocket toy is unreasonably dangerous because when launched as instructed, it passes at high rates of speed within inches of the user's face. This creates a high risk of being struck in the face by the Mega Rocket which can cause serious injury, including blindness. The Mega Rocket is not safe for children 8 years of age as advertised and is not made of "Safe Soft Foam."

I was shooting the ucho Professional slingshot when the top of the frame broke, sending the metal piece into my cheek. It almost knocked me out and at first I thought somebody had hit me with a pole. My teeth started hurting that night and after a week or so I went to the dentist, and he had to pull the tooth. When you get hit by a metal piece stretched with a rubber band it's really a shock.

Child was pulling the rocket back with the sling shot. Upon release it hit her thumb resulting in a deep cut. 3 hours in the ER - Doctors removed part of her nail bed and put in three stitches. Child was under adult supervision at the time of the event.

Purchased a new Barnett Black Widow slingshot for my 14 yr old son. Third time shooting it with him the wrist support slid off at full draw causing the sling shot to torque out of my hand and into my face/eye causing er visit, including brow stiches and eye damage. The wrist strap is not permenantely attached in any way and it's soft plastic, causing it to flex and pull right off the handle/wrist support. Very unsafe design. This happened to me and not my son, thankfully.

My 4 year old son and I were playing with the Superheros Flying spiderman and the spiderman part of the toy broke into 5 pieces in mid air. The body pieces were extremely sharp and could have easily caused bodily injury had it hit either one of us.
