ABSTRACT:
A garment hanger and toy combination comprises a head and body disposed along a longitudinal axis and limbs extending outwardly from the body transversely of the axis. Support means are provided for hanging the combination and the support means is is extendible outwardly from a recess within a top portion of the head when the combination is to be used as a garment hanger, and is retractable into the recess when the combination is to be used as a toy. Movement of the support means is along the axis and is limited to axial movement only, with negligible rotational movement. Preferably, the support means is subjected to an outwardly directed resilient force, and the support means can be latched with a latch structure against the outwardly directed force to hold the support means retracted. The latch structure can be released by direct application of a force to a lower portion of the body, or alternatively can be released by bending the limb sufficiently to release the latch.
