What are these?
On topic, wasn't there these bead things that you could make "pixel art" with and then spray with water to make them stick together that were banned because they could be used as roofies?

Aquadots. They got remade and put back on the market as Aquabeads.

different company entirely made aquadots actually. Pixos were the renamed product after the chinese factory got in huge trouble for not only using such a dangerous chemical but also for purposefully using that cheaper chemical then what the designers ordered them to use. So they also got caught lining their pockets with extra cash.

Although the article mentions the balls shattering and hurting the user, the fact is you could break some people teeth just by swinging them with enough force. They are similar enough to some Argentinian primitive weapon.

Bolos are no joke. You can trip everything with legs with those things.
This gave the kiddies uranium to play with.
Was this "Tesco Peek-a-Boo Stripper Pole" banned? I swear I heard a story that by the time stores were told to pull these from shelves, customers had already bought most of them.

In their defence, it was low level radiation. Not enough to do harm in the short run.

This wasn't real, right? As in it wasn't intended an to be an actual product for children children but some sort of ironic joke that some how got out of hand right?
Also, I noticed it says pole dancer on the box so they could've made the argument it was for the teaching an exotic style of dancing, though the thigh band and play money pretty much shits on that.

Ho ho ho. Thats a good one anon.

No. Tesco did sell it but it was never intended or marketed for children and wasn't even in the toy section.

I believe the issue was that they were either being sold in the toys section or being marketed as toys for children at Tesco. The actual product is for adults.
Not really legally banned but I know at different periods of time during my school years we had Pokemon cards, Beanie Babies, Tamagotchi, and Pogs banned. There was a lot of drama involving uneven trades, sellers regret, and theft amongst the grade school population so having any of these items would result in first just confiscation and your parents having to come in to get it, and any future infraction meant one day suspension.
There was a Mexican company that usually make toys of chemical and laboratory sets
They launch a biology set that included a real dead frog in formalin.
It was remove from stores shortly after
Lawn Darts, of course.

I had a crazy variation of this to when I was kid. The balls was covered with a thick layer of blac powder or some shit, whten the crackers hit each other produces an small explosion.
My grandpa throws them away for being to dangeorus. Maybe he was right.
