Abstract: A diffraction toy system comprises an optical viewing device that provides a diffraction optical viewing effect. The viewing devices can be a pair of eyeglasses having diffraction lenses. The system includes a child's play object that includes a light source. The play object can be nonwearable or wearable objects that can accommodate a light source, such as toy cars, trucks, swords, hats, belts, tiaras, and the like. The light source can be a light emitting diode, and the light source can emit colored light. The play object can be a light device that produces a light show. The system can include a number of viewing devices worn by multiple users, and the viewing devices can provide the same or a different diffusion optical effect. Backdrops, with or without light sources, can be includes to provide a further enhanced visual effect.

Abstract: A system for providing a three-dimensional virtual or fantasy environment comprises a viewing device having anaglyph lenses to provide a three-dimensional viewing effect. The viewing device can be a pair of eyeglasses having anaglyph lenses. The system includes a backdrop that may include a support for attaching to a desired structure such as a wall, floor and/or ceiling. The backdrop has themed or scenic artistry from two or more colors superimposed and offset to provide a desired depth effect The backdrop has a central image with a perceived depth different from a surrounding environment. The backdrop can include a light source to provide further visual enhancement for play. The backdrop may be a two-dimensional image on paper, plastic, fabric, or other suitable material. Multiple viewing devices can be provided to permit play by multiple uses at once.

Abstract: A device includes a body portion having a cavity therein. A reservoir is positioned within the body portion. A portion of the reservoir forms an abdominal region of the animal shaped body. An actuating mechanism is further coupled to the body. A motorized bubble making unit is disposed within the cavity to expel a stream of bubbles from the animal shaped body. The actuating mechanism activates the motorized bubble making unit to expel a stream of bubbles from the animal shaped body.

Abstract: A system for producing and viewing a three-dimensional/stereoscopic image comprises a two-dimensional substrate having a number of blank regions that has been filled in/colored by a user with selected colors calculated to produce a stereoscopic image when viewed through a stereoscopic viewer. The colored regions are separated by black lines and together operate to form a desired image. The image has a background that is predominately black. The black lines and/or background can be provided before or after the user has colored in the blank regions. When the colored image comprising the black lines and black background is viewed through a stereoscopic viewer, the user perceives a three-dimensional image.

Abstract: A toy gun is provided with ejecting shells and a smoking chamber. Each ejecting shell has a spring and a recess and is placed into a barrel chamber. The chamber has a post, which compresses the spring when the shell is placed into the chamber. When the hinge is opened, the spring decompresses ejecting the shell from the chamber. The smoke generating assembly is provided with a pump, an oil tank, a heating element, a switch, a visual indicator, and an automatic shutoff. When the switch is actuated, the heating element heats the oil, such that it transforms into a smoke vapor. Upon opening the hinge, the hinge actuates the pump, connected to the tank, which pumps smoke vapor out of the tank through an opening in the post such that smoke appears in the chamber.

Abstract: A device includes a main body portion connected to a front body portion. The main body portion has a handle with a trigger. The front body portion has a through hole. A movable mouth portion is connected to the main body portion. The movable mouth portion includes a fixed wipe bar. A reservoir is located between the main body portion and the front body portion. The reservoir includes a clear front portion. The reservoir to hold liquid. A motorized bubble making unit is located between the main body portion and the front body portion. When the trigger is pulled the movable mouth portion is raised to expose a bubble forming ring and the motorized bubble making unit is activated to expel a stream of bubbles through the bubble forming ring.

Abstract: A spill resistant container assembly having a container adapted to contain a fluid, such as a bubble solution is provided. A generally elastic concave seal member extends across an opening of the container so as to aid in preventing the fluid from spilling out of the container, if the container is knocked over or held in an inverted position. The seal member has a slit capable of receiving the first end of a fluid carrier member such as a bubble wand. The elasticity of the seal member holds the slit in a normally closed position to prevent spilling.
