A toy airship includes an elongated hull having a generally. circular cross section which includes a pair of panels. The panels are movably supported with respect to the remainder of the airship hull by a plurality of pivotally supported arms. The interior ends of the pivotally supported arms are secured to a movable slide which is positioned by a return spring so-as-to pivot the supporting arms of the panels forwardly and outwardly thereby extending the movable panels to reconfigure the toy airship in a hydrofoil craft configuration. A movable button is operative coupled to the slide and is used to drive the slide forwardly against the return spring and thereby pivot the panel supporting arms rearwardly and inwardly. As the arms are pivoted rearwardly and inwardly, the panels are configured into a closed position resulting in reconfiguring the toy airship in its airship resembling configuration.

[ That which is claimed is:] [1.]1. A toy airship configurable between a closed airship configuration and an open hydrofoil craft configuration, said toy airship comprising:an elongated hull defining side edges and a rear edge;a pair of panels formed to fit upon said hull at said side and rear edges

[ That which is claimed is:] [1.]1. A toy airship configurable between a closed airship configuration and an open hydrofoil craft configuration, said toy airship comprising:an elongated hull defining side edges and a rear edge;a pair of panels formed to fit upon said hull at said side and rear edges;a slide movably supported within said hull;a first pair of arms each having a first end pivotally joined to said slide and a second end pivotally joined to one of said panels;a second pair of arms each having a third end pivotally joined to said slide and a fourth end pivotally joined to the remaining one of said panels, said first and second pairs of arms supporting said panels separate from and spaced from said hull supported solely by said pairs in said open hydrofoil craft configuration;user operable means for moving said slide between a first position moving said panels to said closed airship configuration and a second position moving said panels to said hydrofoil craft configuration.
