Abstract: A doll's seamless garment which is adapted to be dressed, fitted and be removed in a life-like manner from a doll having a height in the range of above 8 cm to about 32 cm, wherein the doll is bendable at least in part. The garment is molded from an elastomeric material or rubber having an average modulus of elasticity of less than 1 MN/m2. The garment wall thickness is preferably in the range of about 1 mm to about 3 mm. Further disclosed is a skin. The skin is adapted to be dressed, fitted and removed from a doll to transform the doll into a different character or object, and wherein the skin is molded in at least one part from an elastomeric material. The skin may have a wall thickness from 1 to 3 mm, the material having an average modulus of elasticity of less than 1 MN/m2. The garments are easily manipulated by children and provide opportunities for creative play. Still further disclosed is a play set comprising, in cooperative combination, a doll donned and fitted with a garment.

Abstract: A multi-sided playing die capable of indicating at least one of a plurality of symbols on sides of the die comprises an energy storage device within the die and a trigger for discharging energy from the energy storage device to cause rotation of the die out of a position in which said at least one symbol is indicated. The die may include a casing formed from parts arranged to rotate relative to each other to cause rotation of the die.

Abstract: A die having a regular polyhedral form, at least one opening face of the die being hinged to an adjacent hinge face such that the at least one opening face can be opened by pressing on at least one pressure face adjacent to the at least one opening face.

Abstract: A drawing apparatus is provided having a housing, a rotating mechanism and a drawing mechanism. The housing has a circumferential ring gear located within an interior portion of the housing. The rotating mechanism is rotatably mounted within the housing and has a motor operatively connected to a drive gear. The drive gear rotates about a drive axis and is positioned for engagement with the ring gear. The drawing mechanism is pivotally mounted on the rotating mechanism, and has a drawing implement holder connected to the drive gear by a connector. The connector is mounted to a portion of the drive gear that is spaced away from the drive axis. Upon rotation of the rotating mechanism with respect to the housing, the drawing implement holder mechanism pivots with respect to the rotating mechanism. Also provided is a method of drawing using such drawing apparatus.

Abstract: A toy including at least one endless stretchable loop supporting or defining a figure or representative object, the toy being sized and shaped for removable placement around a toy wheeled vehicle by tension exerted by the loop against selected exterior portions of the toy wheeled vehicle.

Abstract: A doll's garment is moulded from an elastomeric material or rubber, to give greater realism. A set comprising a miniature doll with articulated limbs and at least one garment therefor is also provided. Suitable elastomeric materials are polyvinyl chloride, ethylene vinyl acetate co-polymers, styrene containing copolymers and low density polyethylene. The garment may be injected moulded and may have detail such as belt, button or collar integrally moulded therewith.

Abstract: Doll's garments made from an elastomeric material or rubber. The garments are particularly useful with articulated dolls and can be fitted to or removed from dolls in a life-like manner.
