Claim:
A human-like toy figure ( 1 ; 101 ; 201 ) comprising a body ( 3 ; 103 ; 203 ) and legs ( 4 ; 104 ; 204 ) configured such in relation to each other that, in the upright position of the toy figure, the body ( 3 ; 103 ; 203 ) is turnable about an essentially horizontal axis (A; A′; A″), in which toy figure ( 1 ; 101 ; 201 ) there is, in connection to the body ( 3 ; 103 ; 203 ), provided inflexible means for temporarily securing an object ( 21 ; 121 ; 221 ), characterised in that the toy figure ( 1 ; 101 ; 201 ) is provided with a spring device that strives to keep the body ( 3 ; 103 ; 203 ) upright in relation to the legs, but allows the body ( 3 ; 103 ; 203 ) to swing resiliently forwards as well as backwards about the axis (A; A′; A″) so as to enable a temporarily secured object to be thrown from the securing means.
