ABSTRACT:
A battery powered flashlight includes a housing defining an interior cavity which supports an internal battery power source and flashlight bulb in operative communication with a movable switch also supported upon the housing. The housing further defines an opening and a generally parabolic reflector communicating the output light of the flashlight bulb to the housing opening. A simulated toy figure is joined to and appears to extend from the upper portion of the housing and supports a miniature replica of the flashlight. A curved light transmissive light pipe is coupled between the miniature light replica and the flashlight bulb in an optical coupling which permits a portion of the flashlight bulb output energy to be coupled through the light pipe and directed outwardly from the miniature flashlight to produce a secondary light beam. Movable colored filters are supported within the housing to permit coloration of the light beams.
