Quick Summary

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled approximately 38,500 Jerify Magnetic Humanoid Toy Sets sold on Amazon due to a safety hazard involving detachable magnets that children can ingest. The recall was issued after two incidents where children swallowed loose magnets from the toys, leading to hospitalization. Each set includes colorful, flexible figures with internal magnets that violate federal standards by being easily removable and posing serious health risks if ingested. The CPSC warns parents to remove these toys immediately and seek a refund from the distributor Colerinsec by emailing proof of purchase.

Story summary

On September 17, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued an urgent recall for 38,500 Jerify Magnetic Humanoid Toy Sets sold on Amazon. The CPSC reported that two young children had ingested tiny magnets after they detached from the figures’ limbs, posing a deadly ingestion hazard. These 30-piece sets include 2.7-inch-tall, flexible figures with high-powered magnets in their hands and feet. Sold for around $21 between October 2022 and May 2026, these toys violate federal safety standards by allowing small, powerful magnets to easily detach, potentially causing intestinal twisting, perforations, or severe blockages if ingested by children.
