About this episode

This episode discusses the ingestion risks posed by high-powered magnets for children and the associated product recall.

Vidcast: https://www.instagram.com/p/DZdJMIuB-GD/ These high-powered magnets create deadly ingestion hazards for children. If swallowed, the magnets can attract one another or other metal objects inside the body resulting in gastrointestinal perforations, twisting, blockage, sepsis, or death. Affected: multiple SKU numbers for each brand. About 22,624 magnet products were sold at independent hobby and game shops nationwide and online at Forge.miniwargaming.com and Amazon.com from October 2022 through January 2026. Stop using the recalled magnets and contact MiniWarGaming at 1-888-561-6860 or by email at support@miniwargaming.com for instructions on how to obtain a prepaid shipping label and return the products for a full refund.
