ABSTRACT:
An amusement projectile device includes a hollow body and head and tail portions, characterized in that the hollow body is formed of a pair of body sections hinged together at one end for movement between closed and open positions. The body includes a pair of fins connected with the body sections adjacent the tail portion to assist in flight of the projectile device through the air. A plurality of colored streamers and a parachute connected with the body of the device are arranged in the hollow body with the body sections in the closed position. The projectile device is propelled into the air in the closed position. At the apex of its flight, the body sections open releasing the streamers and the parachute. The streamers randomly flutter to the ground and the projectile floats to the ground while suspended from the parachute providing amusement to the user.
