Magnetix Magnetic Building Sets
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Magnetix magnetic building sets containing up to 250 plastic building pieces and steel balls pose a serious hazard if children swallow multiple magnets or a magnet along with a metallic object. The magnets can attract to each other inside the intestines and cause perforations or blockage, which can be fatal without immediate medical treatment. The recall applies to all Magnetix sets except those sold since March 31, 2006, that are labeled for ages 6 and up and display a specific caution label warning against ingesting or inhaling magnets.
According to the record, consumers who have recalled Magnetix sets should stop using them immediately and contact Mega Brands to receive a comparable replacement toy.
