Marvel Gear Recalled Over Deadly Battery Risk
31 Jul
Summary
- Over 55,000 Marvel items recalled due to battery ingestion risk.
- Products lack required warning labels, posing dangers to children.
- Consumers can obtain a refund by disposing of the items.
A significant recall has been issued for over 55,000 Marvel movie-themed items, including popular popcorn buckets and drinking cups, due to a serious battery safety concern. The affected products, such as Captain America Popcorn Helmet Containers and Fantastic Four cups with LED lights, were sold at various movie theater chains across the United States.
These items are being recalled because they contain accessible button cell and coin batteries that, if swallowed, can cause severe internal chemical burns and even death. Crucially, the products fail to meet consumer safety standards as they lack necessary warning labels, making them particularly hazardous for children. No injuries have been reported as of late July 2026.
Golden Link, the importer responsible for the recall, is urging consumers to cease using the Fantastic Four Cups and Captain America Popcorn Helmet Containers immediately. To receive a full refund, customers must dispose of the recalled items and provide proof of disposal via email. This recall underscores the importance of adhering to product safety regulations for items accessible to children.
