Be Amazing! Toys Recalls Monster Science and Super Star Science Colossal Water Balls Due to Serious Ingestion Hazard
Be Amazing! Toys has recalled marble-sized water balls sold under two product names: Monster Science Colossal Water Balls (model #7255), which come in packages of eight balls plus growth powder, and Super Star Science! Colossal Water Balls (model #7704), which come in packages of five balls. The balls were sold in blue, green, orange, purple, red, yellow, or clear colors. Both products display the Be Amazing! Toys star logo, "Ages 8+," the product name, "Colossal Water Balls," and a warning not to use without adult supervision on the front of the packaging, with model numbers on the back.
The water balls absorb water and expand up to 400 times their original size, creating a serious ingestion hazard. Because they resemble candy, children may eat them by mistake. If swallowed, the balls can expand inside a child's body and cause intestinal obstructions, leading to severe discomfort, vomiting, dehydration, and potentially life-threatening complications. The balls do not appear on x-rays and require surgery to remove. According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately remove the toy from children and contact Be Amazing! Toys for a refund.
