Abstract: An assembly of a toy and a capsule. The toy can be selectively removed from the capsule. Alternatively, the toys can be left inside the capsule and multiple capsules can be interconnected to produce a larger toy structure. Each capsule used in the system has a first half and a second half. The two halves selectively interconnect along a common seam. When the capsule is closed, the capsule's interior can only be accessed through an access opening. Each capsule comes with a toy figure that is held within its interior. The toy figure is mounted to a suction cup. The suction cup remains external of the capsule while the toy figure is inside the capsule. A neck links the toy figure to the suction cup through the access opening in the capsule. Different capsules can be interconnected to build a larger structure.

Abstract: A toy arrow that has a shaft with a head end and a tail end is described herein. A head is associated with the head end of the shaft. Fins are associated with the tail end of the shaft. Extending hooks extend outward from the sides of the head.

Abstract: A toy bow assembly that is used to launch toy projectiles. The toy bow assembly includes a bow structure having a first arm section and a second arm section. Both the first arm section and the second arm section contain at least one translucent area. Lights are disposed within both the first arm section and the second arm section. The lights internally illuminate the translucent areas of the first arm section and second arm section when activated. An activation switch is disposed on the bow structure for selectively activating and deactivating the lights.

Abstract: A toy projectile launcher that launches projectiles with elastic elements. Each elastic element is designed to be easily replaced on the projectile launcher. Each replaceable elastic element has two ends. An anchor block is provided that receives and retains at least one of the two ends. The anchor block is received within an anchor receptacle. A locking mechanism is used that selectively locks the anchor block within the anchor receptacle. The elastic elements extend from the anchor receptacles and present projectile engagement structures that can be hooked by the toy projectile being launched.

Abstract: A toy projectile launching system that launches a toy projectile. A launcher is provided with a first spring loaded spool and a second spring loaded spool. The first spring loaded spool and the second spring loaded spool are disposed on opposite sides of a common open area. At least one first elastic element is at least partially wound around the first spring loaded spool. Likewise, at least one second elastic element is at least partially wound around the second spring loaded spool. A first termination is coupled to each first elastic element. The first termination extends into the common open area. Likewise, a second termination is coupled to each second elastic element. The second termination extends into the common open area. The first termination and the second termination selectively interconnect with the toy projectile.

Abstract: Mechanically attachable fletching is disclosed herein for a projectile having a shaft having an exterior surface. The mechanically attachable fletching includes at least one fin, a connection section bordering the at least one fin, and at least one mechanical fastener for attaching the fletching to the exterior surface of the shaft via the connection section. Also disclosed herein are methods for mechanically attaching fletching to the shaft of the projectile. Also disclosed herein are illuminated projectiles. Also described herein is a projectile having a shaft, a projectile head, and at least one fin. The projectile head preferably has a plurality of layers, the head end preferably being associated with the projectile head. Also described herein is a projectile that includes a shaft, a suction head, an outer head casing, and at least one fin. The suction head is preferably associated with the head end. The at least one launcher engager is preferably associated with the suction head.
