Why it's dangerous
The structural strength of the plastic casings of the toy is insufficient, allowing high-flux small magnets to easily detach. The small magnets have a high magnetic flux (measured value up to 146.38 kg²mm²). If a child swallows them, they could attract one another causing intestinal blockage or perforation. Moreover, the magnets are small parts. A child can put them in the mouth and choke.
