Disney Store USA of Pasadena, Calif., is recalling about 300 Gadget Pencil Cases.
Two magnets holding the pencil case lid closed can detach, posing an ingestion hazard. If the 2 magnets are swallowed, they can link together inside a child’s intestines and result in serious internal injuries.
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
The Gadget Pencil Cases are 9 1/2 inches by 4 inches by 1 inch plastic boxes with spring-loaded compartments for a pencil sharpener, scissors, ruler, eraser, tape and 5 pencils. The lid contains two 9/16 inch by 1/16 inch by 1/8 inch magnets on the lid. The pencil case covers are available in 4 designs: Avengers, Cars, Miles from Tomorrowland and Multi-Princess.
The pencil cases, manufactured in China, were sold at Disney Stores nationwide during June 2015, for about $15.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled pencil cases away from children and contact Disney Stores to receive a full refund.
Consumers may contact the Disney Store toll-free at (866) 902-2798 from 8:30 am – 5 pm (PT) Monday through Friday or online at www.disneystores.com and click on Safety Recall at the bottom of the page for more information.
