Description
The toy contains two plastic outer casings with magnets inside. Black metallic colour and oval shape. Length circa 45mm.
Risk
The toy poses a serious risk of injuries because the magnets are strong and are of a size that makes it possible for children to swallow them. They fit into the small parts cylinder and when two or more magnets are swallowed simultaneously or on different occasions the magnets can stick together across intestines causing intestinal perforation, infections or blockage, which may lead to fatal accidents or blockage due to swallowed magnets.This product does not comply with the Toys Directive.
