The recalled toys can expand inside a child’s body, if the toys are ingested, causing life-threatening issues like intestinal obstructions, severe discomfort, vomiting and dehydration. The toys also do not show up on X-rays.

No injuries have been reported, but commission officials are recommending parents take the Easter eggs away from their children and return them to the nearest Target location for a full refund.

The toys were sold for $1 from February 2017 through March 2017 and came in various colors, according to Fox News.
