Thank you for this! Do you have suggestions on how to fix the magnetic screen or get a replacement? I emailed the manufacturer (B. Toys for mine) and unfortunately they replied, “​We replace the full toy only, and do not offer the internal parts as replacements.“ But I don’t want all the rest of the plastic - I just want the magnets on the screen to properly appear and disappear. Instead, its like the magnetic powder floats so it’s constantly grey rather than clear or magnetized.
