Cups sold nationwide recalled for lead poisoning risks: Return ASAP
Thousands of copper cups sold nationwide are being recalled for high levels of lead. Consumers are urged to immediately stop using the products and can request a replacement.
If you recently purchased a Flashgitz Relic Lunch Box, it is time to take a close look at the items inside. A nationwide recall has been issued for nearly 7,000 copper cups due to significant lead contamination concerns.
Safety First: Addressing the Lead Risk
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, these copper cups, which were included in the Relic Lunch Box sets, contain high levels of lead. Because lead is toxic to both children and adults when ingested, this poses a serious risk of lead poisoning.
While the potential for health complications is severe, the good news is that 205focus.com can confirm there have been no reported injuries or accidents related to these cups to date.
What to Do With Your Product
If you possess one of these cups, stop using it immediately. The CPSC advises consumers to dispose of the cups in accordance with local waste requirements. You may continue to use the lunch box and all other items included in the set, as only the copper cup is subject to the recall.
Warren James is working to rectify the situation by offering a free replacement cup to customers. If you purchased your lunch box directly from the official Warren James store, a replacement will be sent automatically to the address listed on your original order.
Product Details
The recalled cups were sold online via the Flashgitz shop between September and October 2025 for approximately $25. These items were part of a retro-themed bundle tied to the web cartoon Space King. The bundle also featured a metal figurine and a Zippo lighter case. Interestingly, the boxes included a warning strip stating that the novelty items inside were not intended for use, though the cups are the only items currently impacted by this recall.
