Abstract
A soft toy missile which when let fly by a player and then caught by a catcher, produces upon impact, sounds appropriate to the nature of the missile. When in the configuration of a humanoid figure, the missile includes a body defined by a fabric casing stuffed with a soft compressible filler, the face of the casing having printed thereon the head and torso of the figure. Embedded in the stuffing of the body is a sound-producing unit powered by a battery through an impact-sensitive switch whereby when the missile is caught. The switch turns the unit on to generate sounds that celebrate the catch. Hinged to the body of the figure and extending therefrom are arm and leg appendages, each formed by a fabric sock stuffed with soft compressible material. When the player grasps one of these appendages and whirls the missile to let it fly, the body of the figure then rotates in the course of flight, causing the appendages to stretch out from the body to stabilize the flight. Dispersed throughout the filler are plastic beads which impart to the body of the missile the feel of a bean bag.
