Zelbuck Children's Chess Games Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death f...
Reason for Recall / Hazard
The recalled children's chess games violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.
