The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued an urgent recall for approximately 213,500 units of Goody King Magnetic Building Cubes and Blocks. The recall was prompted by reports of the toy's parts breaking, leading to the release of small, powerful magnets. These magnets, when ingested by children, pose a severe health risk.
The recalled toy consists of magnetic cubes designed to connect and form three-dimensional structures. They were sold in sets ranging from 45 to 300 pieces in various themes. The toys were manufactured in China and distributed in the United States through Amazon.com, with sales occurring between January 2024 and July 2026. The importer of record, Yi Suen Commerce of Hong Kong, has been notified of 27 incidents where the toy's cubes broke or opened, exposing the magnets.
Two children required emergency surgery to remove ingested magnets. The CPSC warns that when high-powered magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other or other metallic objects within the body. This can result in perforations, twisting, or blockages of the intestines, potentially leading to blood poisoning and death.
A full list of the recalled items and their identifying model numbers is available on the CPSC website. Consumers are advised to immediately cease use of the toy and contact Yi Suen Commerce for a refund.
In separate but related incidents, the CPSC also announced recalls for other magnetic toys due to similar ingestion hazards. Last week, 123 units of CuberShop Magnetic Stickerless Speed Cubes were recalled because they were packaged with loose magnets. These were also manufactured in China and sold on Amazon.com from April 2025 to June 2025. No injuries were reported in connection with this recall.
Earlier this month, nearly 1,000 PIXLABBY Silicone Sensory Magnetic Fidget Sliders were recalled. Manufactured in China and sold via Amazon.com between October 2025 and May 2026, these sliders contained high-powered magnets that could become loose. One child was hospitalized after ingesting two magnets from a fidget slider. No other injuries were reported for this product.
