If you have Goody King magnetic building cube sets in your home, the Consumer Product Safety Commission is asking families to stop using them immediately. Approximately 213,500 units have been recalled due to a magnetic ingestion hazard that has already sent two children to surgery.

The recall covers Goody King Magnetic Building Cubes and Blocks, imported by Yi Suen Commerce. The products were sold exclusively on Amazon between January 2024 and July 2026 in sets of 45, 56, 100, 120, 150, and 300 cubes. Theme variations include forests, dinosaurs, and unicorns.

What Makes These Toys Dangerous

The building cubes can break apart or open during play, releasing small high-powered magnets from inside. High-powered magnets are a category of hazard the CPSC has tracked for years: when a child swallows more than one magnet — or a magnet and a piece of metal — the magnets attract each other through intestinal tissue. This can cause perforations, twisting, and blockages in the digestive tract. These injuries can lead to blood poisoning and death.

Two children who ingested magnets from these sets required surgery to remove them. The CPSC describes the hazard as severe enough to warrant immediate cessation of use, not just a warning to supervise children during play.

What to Do Now

Stop using the product immediately. This applies to all Goody King magnetic building cube sets regardless of set size. The recall covers all 213,500 units sold on Amazon in the timeframe noted.

Contact Yi Suen Commerce for a full refund. The company will provide a prepaid shipping label so you can return the product at no cost. Register the recall through the company — refunds are issued after the returned product is received.

If you are unsure whether your set is a Goody King product, check the packaging and any product listings in your Amazon order history from January 2024 through July 2026. If you purchased a magnetic building cube set in that timeframe and are uncertain of the brand, treat it with the same caution until you confirm the product name.

This Recall Is Separate From Recent Similar Recalls

This recall is distinct from several other magnetic toy recalls announced in recent weeks. The Gagaku Ice Cream Toy Playset (Amazon, sold by Brandworl.USA) was recalled separately for a magnet ingestion hazard. Both involve high-powered magnets from different products and different companies. If you have both, both require action.

Magnetic toy hazards have been a recurring CPSC priority in recent years as the category has grown on online marketplaces. Parents who regularly check Amazon orders for popular children's building and STEM toy categories should review their purchase history to confirm whether they own any product subject to active recalls.

What's Next

Consult cpsc.gov for the official recall page and any updates on the Yi Suen Commerce refund process. If your child has swallowed a magnet or you suspect magnet ingestion, seek emergency medical attention immediately — do not wait for symptoms to appear, as internal injuries from magnetic ingestion can progress rapidly without visible external symptoms.
