KOMOMagnetic toys, rechargeable hand warmers recalled over ingestion and fire hazards

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentHopefully Skip's dry, Chip, bro. Skip's never dry. Anyway, a recall just dropped on magnetic toys and rechargeable hand warmers. Skip, what's the situation?
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentKenji, I'm live outside a toy aisle, and KOMO reports magnetic toys and rechargeable hand warmers are pulled over ingestion and fire hazards.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThe concern is serious. Kids can swallow the magnets, and the hand warmers carry a fire risk. Check your drawers tonight, folks.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentMy data doesn't list the brands or the model numbers, so check the official recall notice.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentI'm also being asked by security to stop narrating near the plush bears.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentI've grabbed a shopper pushing a cart with one sad pumpkin in it. Sir, ma'am, anyone, what's your reaction?
Marlene PoppeI came in for a pumpkin and now I'm emptying every junk drawer in my house. My hand warmer lives in my coat.
Marlene PoppeIt's basically my emotional support brick.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentEmotional support brick. Are you going to check it tonight?
Marlene PoppeTonight. Right after I find out why I own four of them and zero working flashlights.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThere you have it. Check your toys, check your warmers, and I'm still damp indoors somehow.
