Ironically most rechargable ones actually use universal Micro-USB chargers (which most have literally in a drawer somewhere or "the cord box"), unlike Apple and a few others with their unique ports compared to most devices. A vast majority of those do come with a charger for convenience, albeit a cheap one given not many toy companies roll in cash.
Most just use batteries (AA or AAA, most common in households), so I think only a select few toys would ever fall under that law as a violation.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk

By "unique," I meant more the actual input end of the cord. Pretty much all chargers end with USB-C, but majority of devices had a micro USB for the actual device power input. Apple has a unique one that only works with Apple devices, don't think I've ever seen anything else use their type
