Abstract
Human-like toy figure (1) comprising a body (3) and legs (4) that are, in the upright position of the toy figure, configured such in relation to each other that the body (3) is turnable about an essentially horizontal axis (A). In connection with the body (3) means are provided for temporarily securing an object (21); and the toy figure (1) is provided with a spring device that seeks to keep the body (3) upright, but allows the body (3) to swing resiliently both forwards and backwards about the axis (A). Also a game comprising such toy figure (1) and at least one goal and an object (21) intended to be thrown towards the goal by the toy figure.
Claims16
A human-like toy figure (1;
- 101;
- 201) comprising a body (3;
- 103;
- 203) and legs (4;
- 104;
- 204) configured such in relation to each other that, in the upright position of the toy figure, the body (3;
- 103;
- 203) is turnable about an essentially horizontal axis (A;
- A′;
- A″), in which toy figure (1;
- 101;
- 201) there is, in connection to the body (3;
- 103;
- 203), provided inflexible means for temporarily securing an object (21;
- 121;
- 221), characterised in that the toy figure (1;
- 101;
- 201) is provided with a spring device that strives to keep the body (3;
- 103;
- 203) upright in relation to the legs, but allows the body (3;
- 103;
- 203) to swing resiliently forwards as well as backwards about the axis (A;
- A′;
- A″) so as to enable a temporarily secured object to be thrown from the securing means.
