I hope that's not quite how it works; the last thing we need is a toy
marketed to (probably) ages 4 and up that's capable of launching a high
velocity projectile (and hence a choking hazard). At the very least, if that
IS how it works, slap an ages 14+ or something on it.
Anybody remember Mattel's Battlestar Galactica 'missile-firing' headache
from the late 70's?
