Recalled 1 Set Puzzle Magnetic Battle Chess with 20 Magnetic Pieces

1 Set Puzzle "Magnetic", "Magnetism", or "Magnetism Intelligence Strategy Game" Magnetic Battle Chess Games

Recall Date: June 13th, 2024
Units: About 2,600
Hazards: The recalled magnetic chess games, which include 20 magnet pieces, violate the mandatory federal toy magnet regulation because the set contains one or more magnets that fit within CPSC's small parts cylinder, and the magnets are stronger than permitted. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death.
