Magnetix Magnetic Building Set Recall Expanded Serious Injuries Continue to be Reported to CPSC
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
If a child swallows more than one tiny powerful magnet detached from the plastic building pieces or one such magnet and a metallic object, the objects can attract to each other inside the intestines and cause perforations and/or blockage, which can be fatal, if not treated immediately.
What to do
Consumers should stop using the recalled magnetic sets immediately and contact Mega Brands for a comparable replacement toy.
