Abstract

A doll (10) having a soft plush body supports a drive mechanism (60) within the torso (11). A pair of arms (13, 14) are pivotally supported upon the torso (11) and are coupled to the drive mechanism (60) by a pair of slip cam devices. The slip cam devices operate to impart arm motion in accordance with the number and placement of the cams (92, 111) within the slip cam devices. A momentun sensor (96) within the torso (11) activates the drive mechanism (60) in response to touches or impacts upon the doll.
