Disney Store is recalling about 300 Gadget Pencil Cases because the two magnets that hold the lid closed can detach, posing a serious risk to children. The recalled cases are 9 1/2-inch plastic boxes featuring Avengers, Cars, Miles from Tomorrowland, or Multi-Princess designs and include spring-loaded compartments for school supplies. These products were sold exclusively at Disney Stores nationwide during June 2015 for about $15. No injuries have been reported, but consumers should stop using these cases immediately to prevent accidental ingestion.
If the small magnets detach and are swallowed, they can attract each other through the intestinal walls. This can cause the intestines to twist or become blocked, leading to serious internal injuries or death.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled pencil cases away from children and contact Disney Stores to receive a full refund.
