A hobby projectile may include, but is not limited to: a body portion having an at least partially foam material construction; and a plurality of at least one of magnetic particles or magnetic fibers operably coupled to the body portion. The body portion may include a substantially spherical body portion or a disc-shaped body portion. The magnetizable particles or magnetizable fibers may include ferrite particles and/or ferrite fibers.

A hobby projectile may include, but is not limited to: a ball-type projectile having a substantially spherical shape and constructed at least partially of a foam material; and a magnetic or magnetizable component. At least a portion of the ball-type projectile may be at least partially coated with a magnetic or magnetizable component or may include magnetic or magnetizable particles and/or fibers embedded therein.

A toy projectile, such as a dart, ball or disc has a magnetic or magnetizable component associated therewith to facilitate the collection of toy projectiles which may be scattered on a floor or on the ground. A telescopic wand having a metal or magnetizable component may be used to pick up the toy projectiles.

System for achieving controlled movement of at least one first magnet. The movement is caused by a repulsive force from at least one second magnet. Before movement of the first magnet, the magnet and one of the at least one second magnets are aligned in such a way that a line E-E running through both centers C, D of the magnets, is not perpendicular to the magnetic axis A-A, B-B of any of the magnets. A method for controlled movement of at least one first magnet includes aligning the at least one first magnet and the at least one second magnet in such a way that a line E-E running through both centers C, D of the magnets, are not perpendicular to the magnetic axis A-A, B-B of the magnets. The magnets are aligned close to each other while they are retained, and the first magnet is released.
