A package housing a humanoid or animal-like figure, or other shaped object such as a miniature automobile, formed of porous, compressible material which when compressed to expel the air therefrom then assumes a shrunken state. The shrunken object is stuffed into the cavity of a small container having a form thematically related to the object stuffed therein. When the container is opened and the object released therefrom, the object inhales air to assume its normal full scale size and shape. Embedded in the object is a sound-producing electronic unit which when the object is agitated, then generates audible sounds appropriate to the object.
