What's being recalled
GLMZZ Fidget Magnet Ball Toys
Units: About 9,350
This recall involves GLMZZ Fidget Magnet Ball Toy Sets. Each set contains eight round magnet balls (white, blue, green, pink, yellow, cream and two purple balls). Each ball is about 1.24 inches in diameter. The magnet toys come in a black zippered case.
The problem, in CPSC's words
The magnet ball toys violate the mandatory standard for toys because they are high-powered magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they 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 CPSC says to do
