Hazard

The product presents a high risk of choking as the magnetic bait fish from the fishing rod is a small part as received. A child may place the small part in their mouth and choke.

The magnetic bait fish was found to have a magnetic flux greater than the maximum permissible level of 50 kG²mm². Small, high-powered magnetic products can be easily swallowed and, when ingested, have the potential to cause serious internal injuries within the gastrointestinal tract.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Corrective action

OPSS are requiring the recall of the product from end users.

The listing has been removed by the online marketplace (Wish).
