There are some safety issues to be aware of: Under current rules, any toy guns (and those are the only ones firms tend to hire, if they are wise) should have
a red end to their barrel/muzzle, or be an unrealistic colour, in order to distinguish them from the real thing. So far,
other items such as swords carry no such distinguishing marks, and most are incapable of doing much damage anyway, being basically
toys designed to break rather than cause harm That said, anyone carrying any sort of weapon, toy or not, in costume
or out, needs to exercise caution when in public: Heightened awareness of terrorist threat and increased police
powers mean that what you might think is a harmless toy may not be seen as such by others.
