Abstract: The picture toy includes a housing, a first opaque plate including a first array of apertures, a second opaque plate including a second array of apertures, and a plurality of light pipes. The picture toy is assembled such that each aperture of the first array is axially aligned with a corresponding aperture of the second array. Each light pipe includes a rear section and a front section which are respectively fitted into one of the apertures of the first array and its corresponding aperture of the second array. The rear section of each light pipe further includes an opaque end surface which substantially prevents light from entering the picture toy through the rear section when the light pipe is slid into a raised position. Illuminated indicia are created by selectively depressing the light pipes so that light may enter the rear section of the light pipe and propagate therethrough.
Abstract: A basketball hoop structure includes a small scale basketball hoop member securable to a door or other structure by a bracket. The bracket is of a generally U-shape for selective alternative receipt of a horizontal and vertical edge of the door. Additionally, the bracket includes an arrangement for mounting the small scale basketball hoop member in either a selected horizontal or vertical orientation relative thereto both when the bracket is mounted on a horizontal door edge and when the bracket is mounted on a vertical door edge.
Abstract: A "safety" game dart for use with a dart board having plural projecting dart-receiving fingers, includes an elongate dart body with plural guide wings at one end and a blunt non-metal tip at the opposite end. The tip is formed of an elastomer, e.g. rubber, to be compressibly resilient for compression fitting into a mounting recess in the dart body and to compress upon impact to minimize possible injury or damage to persons or objects accidentally struck by the dart. Each wing includes a laterally projecting planar main guide portion coplanar with the elongate extent of the dart body and an angularly oriented planar tail portion transverse with respect to the dart body, to induce rotation of the dart during flight.
