The UK's Child Accident Prevention Trust called the Record's findings "very disturbing". Projects director Mike Hayes added: "Parents need to understand that some toys can be very dangerous to children if not used correctly. The two biggest contributers to the discolouring of the plastic of Mega Construx toys are long term exposure to sunlight and cigarette smoke. Try to minimise these when storing your Mega Construx. Dad Adam said: "The doctors kept telling us William was right on death's door. We almost lost our son over a toy."

Suffice it to say, that the MagNext has taken pride of place over the Lego in our house for the time being! Six-year-old Owen Howman, of Ohio, needed life-saving surgery in 2006 after Magnetix magnets he had swallowed cut holes in his bowels and spilled deadly bacteria into his abdomen. But the safety message didn't save little Kenny, of Seattle, who died in 2005 after swallowing magnets from the Magnetix toys that belonged to his 10-year-old brother. And when kids swallow the magnets they can snap together inside their bodies, tearing through their organs and causing gruesome injuries. Doctors have compared the damage caused to knife and gunshot wounds.

The Chinese-made toys were recalled from shop shelves in America after the horrific death of 20-month-old Kenny Sweet. Megabrands also recently launched what they say is a new and sturdier magnet building toy, called Magnext.

Campaigners have called for a tougher safety regime to protect our kids. Mike Hayes said: "We would really benefit from better co-ordination between the various agencies to ensure that consumer safety is given the highest priority. Megabrands settled legal action brought by Kenny Sweet's family and a dozen others without admitting any liability. And America's Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled millions of Magnetix toys in 2006 and 2007. DEADLY magnetic toys that have killed at least one child and left others horribly injured are being sold as Christmas gifts in Scots shops.

Most companies just test products when they have been made but we are constantly testing them from the design onwards."

The Magnetix iCoaster takes construction toys to the next level by using the power of magnetism. It allows you to construct a magnetic roller coaster – complete with drops, loops and jumps. Magnext is a magnetic construction toy sold by MEGA Brands, consisting of plastic building pieces with embedded neodymium magnets, steel bearing balls, and a variety of additional parts which can be connected together to form anything from skeletal geometric shapes and structures to more robust and functional toys.

Rather than the rods of Geomag, Magnext has 'triangular' and 'square' pieces with 3 and 4 embedded magnets. The balls are 0.59 inches in diameter (larger than the 0.50 inch balls of Geomag). Under Scotland's health and safety guidelines, no single body have the authority and manpower to get dangerous child products out of our shops. But previous investigations have found products on shop shelves which had not been labelled correctly. Just weeks before Kenny died, four-year-old California tot William Finley was rushed to hospital with a suspected burst appendix.
