I is for Inclusion

I will add a new tag for this post: 'Inclusion Toy', as I have a whole tub of these somewhere with dinosaurs, sea-life, soldiers, N-gauge parachutists* and others with a few brands, but this one stayed on its card and is in with a bunch of other rack-toys we've been working through this RTM.

* They're real fun, between 1 and 5 tiny little almost-stick figures, doing various arrangements of free-fall display above small, aerial-view, photograph-discs also included a few millimeters below the figures.

Obviously the trope here is that a very small (about 1:76th) figure is set into the bouncy-ball, in this case along with a tiny football about the size of a pin-head.

While the branding is more problematical, as it's credited to 'England' (the team), Via the Football Association (FA), with the addition of Hy-Pro (an 'outdoor manufacturer'?) but there will be some management/publicity firm behind that, and they will have commissioned the artifact (along with mugs and t-shirts et al) from a third party who will have approached the same contract-manufacturers as every other rack-toy wholesaler!

The figure (as with all these inclusion balls) appears to be around 1:72nd scale, but that is the magnifying effect of the clear sphere of polymer surrounding it, when you dig them out they are always smaller. Memory suggests we did look at one some time ago - a dinosaur, or a sea lion? If I can find it, I'll tag it with the new tag, and I can build on the tag in the future, when I find the rest.
