Abstract: A combination aquatic toy and a reservoir wherein the reservoir comprises a container to contain a body of water and a contactless electrical power transfer transmitter, the toy is a submersible or is submersible and comprises a body carrying a battery and a battery powered propeller (fin or screw propeller or foil or impeller or other) to drive the toy through the body of water and contactless power transfer receiver to receive power, when in sufficient proximity to the transmitter, from the transmitter.

Abstract: A negatively buoyed aquatic toy with a watertight body portion that contains a battery electrically connected via a controller to at least one coil. The coil is positioned relative to a magnet and the coil may be caused to oscillate by virtue of a controller defined alternating current passing through the coil. The oscillation of the coil causes movement of a tail fin that is engaged to said watertight body to cause the toy to move upwards through a body of water.

Abstract: A toy for firing projectiles comprising or including a frame and an arm pivotally mounted to the frame and able to move between a first position and a second position, wherein in use, a projectile equipped with or being an elastic member can be launched by the toy by engaging the elastic member with the arm and moving the projectile relative to the arm such that the elastic member is extended and the arm is in the second position, and subsequently releasing the projectile to cause the projectile to be launched by virtue of transfer the stored energy in the elastic member, wherein the arm is able to move to the first position so as not to interfere with the trajectory of the launched projectile.

Abstract: A toy gun capable of squirting liquid and launching projectiles, the toy gun comprising or including a liquid squirting mechanism actuatable to expel liquid in a squirting manner, a projectile launching mechanism actuatable to launch a projectile, a trigger moveable between two limits, wherein movement of the trigger between its two limits can actuate both the liquid squirting mechanism and the projectile launching mechanism.
