Buckyballs on GameStop Rewards Catalog: Check Directly

I don't have real-time access to GameStop's rewards catalog. Buckyballs (neodymium magnet spheres) have been controversial and restricted due to child ingestion hazards.

Current Status

  • CPSC Ban (2012–2016): Sale banned in US. Overturned 2016, but strict labeling required.
  • Major Retailers Dropped Them: GameStop, Target, Walmart, Amazon stopped carrying ~2012.
  • Unlikely in Rewards: GameStop rewards typically feature games, accessories, collectibles, merch — not restricted magnets.

How to Check

  1. Log into GameStop.com → PowerUp Rewards → Catalog.
  2. App: GameStop app → Rewards tab.
  3. Call local store — they can check inventory/catalog.
  4. Contact GameStop Support.

Alternatives for Magnet Toys

  • Speks — 2.5mm rare-earth magnets, compliance-tested, sold as "desk toy" (14+).
  • Neoballs — Similar, various coatings.
  • Magnet Cubes / Rods — Less ingestion risk (larger).

Warning: Keep all small magnets away from children <14. Ingestion of multiple = surgical emergency.
