(57) A toy includes a plurality of portions adapted for articulation relative to each
other. The toy has a skeleton for which there are at least skeleton members corresponding
to each portion of the toy other than portions at the extremeties of the toy. The
skeleton is moulded as a single integrated structure with each skeleton member generally
rigidly connected to the or each neighbouring skeleton member by a respective relatively
narrow breakable region. The toy additionally comprises, for each portion of the toy
for which there is a corresponding skeleton member, a body member injection moulded
generally around an end part of the corresponding skeleton member and also around
the adjacent end part of each or any skeleton member to which the first mentioned
end part is connected by one of the relatively narrow breakable regions. To complete
the articulated toy, the various narrow breakable regions are broken after moulding
of the body members. |
