[BC] My Little Pony Soldering Iron

[Peter Smerdon]

Cute - but maybe dangerous.
The Weller barrel and tip looks too much like a handle for my liking.
When the tip doesn't have smoking flux (like in the picture) I could see 
an uninitiated, or inattentive, person grabbing it to move that "darned 
toy" out of their way. Ouch!!

Oh, and definitely not one for when kids are around.
