Toy company Fisher-Price is Christopher Caldwellrecalling over 20,000 "Thomas & Friends" toys due to choking and magnet ingestion hazards, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
According to the CPSC, the recalled toys have a small plastic piece containing a high-powered magnet that connects one train to another that can detach or become loose, posing a choking or magnet ingestion hazard.
The toys being recalled are the Thomas & Friends Railway Troublesome Truck & Crates and the Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway Troublesome Truck & Paint.
Fisher-Price has received one report of the plastic connector becoming loose and detaching from the product. No injures have been reported.
The push-along wooden trains are designed to look like characters from "Thomas & Friends" called the Troublesome Trucks.
The Troublesome Truck & Crates is a black and gray train car with cargo of brown crates, the CPSC said, while the Trouble Truck & Paint is a gray and black train car with cargo of gray paint cans and a yellow paint splatter on the side. Both trains have faces on the front of them.
Model numbers HBJ89 (Troublesome Truck & Crates) and HBJ90 (Troublesome Truck & Paint) can be found on the bottom of the train cars.
