Abstract

A toy figure (10) is formed of an animal shaped fabric (11) and an egg shaped fabric (50), each of soft and pliable fabric and each commonly joined to the other by a common open aperture (45). The open aperture (45) and flexible fabric of the two forms (11, 50) allow one to be stuffed into the other through the common aperture (45) to provide a padded configuration of an animal toy or an egg shaped toy. Conventional sound unit (28) is supported within one of the flexible fabrics. First plurality of pressure-responsive switches (20, 21, 22) is supported within the animal-like flexible fabric while a second plurality (25, 26, 27) of pressure-responsive switches is supported within the egg-like flexible skin. The sound unit (28) produces a first set of sounds in response to actuation of the first plurality of switches and a second set of sounds in response to actuation of the second plurality of switches. In each configuration, one plurality of switches is inaccessible and one plurality is accessible.
