i don't know the process, just a small toy box.

In my view, it should be used with ABS and injection molding.

here some of the information:

Expected Production Qty / Day = 800 pieces / 10 hour injection shift.
Plastic Injection machine capacity = Range from biggest 350 Ton / 32 oz, 200 Ton / 22 oz, 150 Ton / 16 oz, 80 / 4 oz
 
Does it have an increased strength requirement? Polypropylene might well suffice your need and will be a lot cheaper. PE might do well too. It depends on what the toy will have to withstand during it's lifetime. You should speak to a material supplier and they will be able to advise you.
 
That's a good idea...
Thank you
