After having the cops called on me, having him draw his gun on me, shitting my pants, explain to him it was a toy, I lost my interest in both toy gun and real guns.
And that may also be the real reason behind the Afghanis banning toy guns. In a country where everybody's packing a child with something like a gun in hand would be an immediate target.
I had toy guns too when I was little. Looked the part and had blanks to fire. They produced noise and smoke, but in my country neither the cops nor bystanders assumed that a child would be packing the real deal.
