US Consumer Product Safety Commission Recalls 38,500 Magnetic Toy Sets Due to Ingestion Hazard

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced the recall of approximately 38,507 Jerify Magnetic Humanoid Toy Sets sold on Amazon. The recall, issued on September 17, is due to the hazard posed by magnets detaching from the toys' hands and feet, which can then be swallowed by children.

The recalled toys violate federal safety standards as they contain high-powered magnets that can become loose. According to the CPSC, two incidents have been reported involving children who removed and swallowed magnets from the toys, resulting in both children being hospitalized. The agency warns that swallowed magnets can attract each other or other metal objects within the body, leading to serious internal injuries such as perforations, blockages, and potentially fatal complications.

The recalled sets feature 30 human-shaped figures in various colors, each approximately 2.7 inches tall and 2.5 inches wide, with magnets embedded in their hands and feet. The toys were sold exclusively on Amazon.com between October 2022 and May 2026 for about $21. The sets were packaged in an unlabeled clear bag inside a brown box bearing the Jerify brand and the product number X003ADA3TD. Hefei Hanchan Network Technology Co., Ltd., doing business as Colerinsec, is the manufacturer, and the toys were made in China.

Parents are advised to immediately remove the toys from children's possession and cease their use. To receive a full refund, consumers are instructed to contact Colerinsec via email at [email protected]. They will be required to dispose of the toys and provide photographic evidence of their disposal.

This recall is part of a broader pattern of safety concerns regarding children's magnetic toys sold online. In August, CPSC recalled 2,186 BUSOHA magnetic fidget sliders due to exposed magnets, although no injuries were reported. A separate August recall involved 860 Pixlabby magnetic fidget sliders, where a child was hospitalized after swallowing two magnets. Earlier in February, about 1,300 magnetic chess games sold on Amazon were recalled for similar loose magnet hazards.

The CPSC has also recently flagged other children's products sold through online marketplaces for choking hazards. Recalls in September, April, and August 2025 have included toys with small balls intended for children under three, violating federal safety bans. These recurring recalls underscore the importance for parents to carefully review product details, model numbers, and safety warnings when purchasing children's toys from online retailers.
