Flying disc toys are personalized with dye-sublimation printing using a heat press and dye-sublimation paper, onto which a design is printed. An assembled flying disc toy is disposed between a pad and a mask, in the heat press. The mask protects the ring of the flying disc toy from melting. The pad urges the fabric cover of the flying disc toy towards the paper and helps prevent crushing of the ring during pressing and the high-definition dye transfer sublimation printing.
