- Hazard
- The product has been identified as presenting a medium risk of choking and internal injuries as the triangle and semi-circle shapes are small parts as received. A young child may put a small part in its mouth and the parents may notice in time, so the small part can block the child’s airways and cause the child to choke.
- The magnetic toy was also found to have a magnetic flux index of up to 127.33 KG²mm², greater than the maximum permissible level of 50 KG²mm². Small, high-powered magnetic products can be easily swallowed and, when ingested, have the potential to cause serious internal injuries within the gastrointestinal tract.
- The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
- Corrective action
- OPSS are requiring the withdrawal of the product from the market.
- The listing has been removed by the online marketplace (Wish).
