Product Description
This recall involves Zelbuck-branded children's chess games. The recalled, blue turtle-shaped games have a white playing board at the top and come with a multi-colored spinner and 32 black magnetic balls that can be stored under the playing board. "Magnetism Ball Game" is printed on the front of the game's box and "Number 999-9" on the back.
Hazard
The recalled children's chess games violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.

Consumers should stop using the recalled games immediately, take them away from children and contact n b plus for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "RECALLED" in permanent marker on the games and send a photo of the marked games to zelbuckrecall@sina.com. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled product.
