ABSTRACT:
A stackable toy comprising a doll having a centrally disposed, vertically movable pin, said pin being recessed within the doll when in retracted position and extending upwardly from the doll when in projected position, a socket being formed within the doll below the pin. The projected pin of one such doll is adapted to engage the socket of a second such doll to assemble the two dolls in stacked positions. Each doll is also provided with angularly disposed pin-shaped limbs, e.g. arms, and these limbs are equally engageable with a doll socket. A plurality of dolls made in accordance with this invention may be stacked by means of their respective centrally disposed pins as well as by means of their respective pin-shaped limbs. Various alternative means are provided for extending and retracting the centrally disposed pin. In its simplest form the pin is manually movable into either projected or retracted position. Other alternatives involve the use of helical cams or guide formations on the pin or in the body of the toy or both.
