If your family has the Jerify Magnetic Stick Figure Toy Sets sitting on a shelf or in a toy bin, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is asking you to stop using them immediately. The toys were recalled on September 17, 2026, after two children swallowed magnets that detached from the figures and were hospitalized.

About 38,507 sets were sold exclusively on Amazon.com between October 2022 and May 2026 for around $21. The 30-piece sets feature colorful poseable human figures โ€” approximately 2.7 inches tall โ€” with magnets embedded in the hands and feet of each figure.

Why This Recall Matters

When magnets are swallowed, the danger is not from a single piece โ€” it is from the way magnets interact inside the body. Multiple swallowed magnets (or a magnet alongside another metal object) can attract each other through the walls of the intestines, causing perforations, twisting or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning, and in the most serious cases, death.

The CPSC confirmed it received two reports of children removing magnets from the figure's limbs and swallowing them. Both incidents resulted in hospitalizations.

The toys violate mandatory safety standards for toys. The magnets in the figures are accessible to young children and can be removed, creating the exact ingestion hazard the standard is designed to prevent.

Not sure if you bought them? If your family ordered a magnetic stick figure toy set on Amazon in the past few years, check your order history. Search for "Jerify," "Colerinsec," or "magnetic stick figure" in your Amazon purchase history to identify the product.

A Note on Magnetic Toy Safety

High-powered magnets in toys have been a recurring safety concern for years. When individual magnets or small magnetic parts can be removed from a toy by a child, the risk profile changes significantly. Pediatric emergency rooms are familiar with magnet ingestion cases โ€” and the outcomes can be severe if not caught quickly.

Signs that a child may have swallowed magnets include sudden abdominal pain, vomiting, fever, or unusual behavior after play. If you suspect ingestion, do not wait โ€” go to the emergency room immediately and tell medical staff that magnets may have been swallowed.

What's Next

The CPSC continues to monitor magnetic toy safety and has issued multiple recalls in this category in recent years. If you have other magnetic toy sets purchased from Amazon or other online retailers โ€” particularly from less well-known brands โ€” it may be worth checking cpsc.gov to see if they've been flagged.

For Colorado families, the state's Child Access Prevention laws also encourage safe storage of other household hazards. The CPSC recall page is updated regularly and is the most reliable source for current product safety actions.
