Abstract: A jewelry assembly includes an elongated support and a plurality of charms. Each charm is removably attachable to the support by a snap-fit connection comprising attachment and clip parts, with one of the parts being associated with the support and the other of the parts being associated with the charm. The clip part includes a pair of opposed clip arms that present an open slot and a neck with a gap having a narrower cross-sectional dimension than the slot. The attachment part is received in the slot and has a cross-sectional dimension greater than the gap of the neck. At least one of the attachment and clip parts is flexible so as to flex as the attachment part passes through the neck into the slot.

Abstract: A modular construction toy kit includes components to construct a modular construction toy. The toy kit includes at least three contoured body sections operable to be interconnected in series with one another to cooperatively form a continuous toy body. The body sections include at least one transition body section and a pair of end body sections. Each end body section is truncated to present a contoured outer end surface that is intersected by an end joining face. The end joining faces have different marginal shapes and/or sizes. The at least one transition section presents a contoured outer transition surface and opposite, endmost transition joining faces that intersect the outer transition surface. Each endmost transition joining face marginally matches a respective one of the end joining faces to define a connection interface.

Abstract: A game includes an adversarial figure with at least two portions that cooperatively present a figure-holding chamber. A captured figure is removably positioned in the chamber and operable to enter and exit the chamber. The holding figure also has a latch assembly that holds the portions in a closed condition where figure ingress and egress is restricted. The latch assembly can be shifted to open the portions and permit figure ingress and egress to and from the chamber. The game has an objective of freeing the captured figure from within the chamber by having a player position a rescuing figure in a game area, and releasing the captured figure from control of the holding figure as a result of a releasing act of the rescuing figure.
