Magnetic Stick Figure Sets Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Magnet Ingestion; Violate Mandatory Standard for Toys; Sold on Walmart by BlissfulDestiny

Hazard

The magnetic stick figures violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the recalled magnetic stick figures immediately and take them away from children. Contact BlissfulDestiny for information on how to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to throw the recalled magnetic stick figures away and email a photo of the disposed product to Blissful_Destiny@outlook.com.
