Magnetopia Magnetic Building Cubes Recalled Over Magnet Hazard

Magnetopia is recalling its magnetic building cubes and blocks because the magnets inside can come loose and seriously injure or kill a child who swallows them, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said on November 5, 2026. Stop using the sets now and ask the company for a refund. Check the model number on the back of the box to see if the Magnetopia magnetic building cubes recall covers your set.

Products Affected by This Recall

The recall covers Magnetopia-branded Magnetic Building Cubes and Blocks. Each cube holds small, powerful magnets that let the pieces stick together into 3D designs. Sets came in sizes of 60, 100, 150 and 200, in themed building and landscape designs and a range of colors.

Style names alone will not settle it, because a name like Darkhouse appears on two different models. Here is the full list from the CPSC notice, style first and model number second:

• Darkhouse: MAT-030
• Arean: MAT-031
• Darkgrass: MAT-032
• Farmday: MAT-033
• Bluehous: MAT-034
• Pinkfarm: MAT-035
• DarkForest: MAT-036
• PinkHouse: MAT-037
• Seafight: MAT-038
• Firefarm: MAT-039
• Darkfarm: MAT-040
• Darkhouse: T009
• BrownFarm: T025
• Farm: T076
• Darkhero: T078

Look on the back of the product packaging for the model number. Lost the box? The notice does not explain how to identify a set from the cubes alone, and it gives no UPC or lot numbers. Magnetopia is the place to ask. The CPSC lists this action as recall number 27-076.

The Reason Behind the Recall

According to the CPSC notice, the magnets inside the cubes can come loose if a cube breaks or opens. That turns a building toy into a swallowing hazard for children.

Swallowed high-powered magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and lodge in the digestive system. The agency says that can lead to holes in the intestines, twisting, blockage, blood poisoning and death.

Children are the group the notice is concerned about.

Where Were These Products Sold?

Magnetopia sold the sets on Magnetopia.com from April 2025 through October 2026, at prices between $20 and $40. The notice names no other retailers. HBT LTD, doing business as Magnetopia, of Hong Kong, imported them, and they were made in China.

The notice does not say which countries or states received orders, so check your set wherever you live. A set that arrived as a gift counts too. Because the notice names only the online store, look for an order confirmation in your email if you want to confirm when you bought.

Steps Consumers Should Take

If you own one of these sets, deal with it today, before anyone plays with it again.

• Take the cubes away from children and stop using them.
• Match the model number on the back of the packaging against the list above.
• Email Magnetopia at toyrecall78945@outlook.com, or go to recall.magnetopia.com, and ask for a full refund.
• Return the cubes using the pre-paid label the company provides.
• Keep the set somewhere children cannot reach until it ships back.

Why Swallowed Magnets Are Different

In general, a small object that a child swallows often passes through the body without trouble. Magnets break that pattern. If a child swallows several, they can pull together across separate loops of intestine and pinch the tissue between them.

Doctors treat that as an emergency, not a wait-and-see problem. That is why the advice in the next section is so direct.

If a Child May Have Swallowed a Magnet

Doctors advise seeking emergency medical care right away when a child may have swallowed a magnet, even if the child seems fine. Stomach pain, vomiting and fever can take time to show up, and they are easy to mistake for a stomach bug.

Do not wait to see whether symptoms appear. Tell the medical team what was swallowed, and bring the packaging if you have it. A doctor or poison control center can give advice specific to your child.

Checking Your Home for Loose Magnets

Small magnets are easy to lose track of. In general, when a magnetic toy has been in play for months, stray pieces end up under furniture, between sofa cushions and in toy bins and bags.

Before you pack up the set, sweep those spots, and look over each cube for cracks or seams that have opened. A broken cube is the situation the CPSC describes, so set it apart from the rest and mention it when you contact Magnetopia.
