Games Workshop Recalls KOYO Bounca The Squig Plush Toys for Choking Hazard

Games Workshop is recalling about 2,600 KOYO Bounca The Squig Limited Edition Plush toys because the pom-poms can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. No injuries have been reported.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Choking hazard involving a detachable component on a toy intended for young children meets the rubric criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported. The source explicitly states no injuries have been reported, confirming the hazard is theoretical rather than actual.

Plain-English summary

Games Workshop Retail Inc. is recalling approximately 2,600 KOYO Bounca The Squig Limited Edition Plush toys. The toys are orange plush monsters with gray antlers, two legs, no arms, a wide-open mouth with big teeth, and green and red pom-poms. The words "KOYO" and "Manufactured By GA Global Limited T/A The Koyo Store" appear on a fabric sewn-in label on the bottom of the toy.

The pom-poms attached to the toy can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. No injuries have been reported.

The recalled toys were sold at Games Workshop and Warhammer stores nationwide from October 2021 through November 2021 for approximately $30. Consumers should immediately remove the recalled plush toy from children and either return it to any Games Workshop or Warhammer store for a full refund, or destroy the toy by cutting off the tail with scissors. Consumers who destroy the toy should email a photograph of the destroyed toy to [email protected] or upload the photo using the form at https://www.games-workshop.com/recall to receive a full refund.
