ABSTRACT:
A figurative toy missile in animal-like or humanoid soft form defined by a head and a torso having appendages extending therefrom. The missile structure is such that when the missile is thrown by a player, it will spin, or execute other excursions in flight, depending on how the appendages are grasped by the player. The torso is formed by an outer fabric casing enclosing a rubber balloon inflated with water, whereby the torso functions as a weighted ball. The head is formed by a shaped, stuffed fabric bag attached to the upper end of the torso casing. The legs and feet are formed by a pair of soft appendages attached to the lower end of the torso casing, and the arms and hands are formed by a pair of soft appendages attached to opposite sides of the torso casing. To alter these flight characteristics so that the missile can do flips and execute other special movements, attached as a removable accessory to the figure is a weighted backpack or other weighted object to impart asymmetrical flying characteristics thereto.
