ABSTRACT:
A toy figure includes a hollow torso. The arms of the figure are each provided with a ball having a shank extending inwardly therefrom. At the free end of the shank is a disk that is received in an arcuate slot formed by first and second pairs of ribs. The first pair of ribs function to retain the disk so that the ball of each arm is pulled against a beveled annular seat formed in the torso, whereas the second pair of ribs are sufficiently resilient so that they frictionally engage the disk to hold the disk in various positions when the arm with which the disk is associated is swung into various angular positions, thereby retaining the arm in whatever posed relation it has been moved into.
