Claim:
A novelty assembly comprising: a band having a first surface and a second surface; a plurality of nubs extending from said first surface of said band, each of said plurality of nubs being cylindrical in shape, having a first length and a first diameter that extends along said first length, wherein said plurality of nubs are separated by a pitch spacing along said band, and wherein each of said plurality of nubs is fabricated from an elastomeric material that has a high first coefficient friction; a coating of paint covering each of said plurality of nubs, wherein said coating of paint has a second coefficient of friction that is lower than said first coefficient of friction; a plurality of toy figures, each of said toy figures having a bottom opening of a second diameter, wherein said second diameter of each said bottom opening is smaller than said first diameter of each of said plurality of nubs, wherein said bottom opening of each of said toy figures receives and engages one of said plurality of nubs with a friction fit, therein interconnecting said plurality of toy figures with said band.
