Abstract: The present invention relates to a transforming toy and, particularly, to a multi-step transforming toy, wherein the toy transforms in a first step in a process of preparing for a launch and transforms in a second step in a process of lunching a traveling object, and the traveling object, which has passed through the transforming toy, also transforms. Therefore, the toy can arouse a child's interest and launch a predetermined shaped object such as a missile, a fist, or a baby dinosaur.

Abstract: A device for producing an animal sound such as an elk, deer, or turkey vocalization, the device having two pivotably or vertically connected portions, one portion bearing a bent vibratable reed and the other a compressible foam lining, wherein the sound is produced by blowing air over the reed, the pitch being adjustable by pivoting the portions to be more or less parallel to each other or moving the portions vertically to be closer together or further apart. In another embodiment, there is a single reed-bearing portion, the tongue serving in place of the foam-lined portion.

The first end portion passes through the first hair pass-through aperture to an exterior of the character figure. The second end portion passes through the second hair pass-through aperture to the exterior of the character figure. The knot is unable to pass-through any of the hair pass-through apertures that hair from the clump of hair passes through.

Abstract: Most children's construction sets fail when to comes to providing children with a fast and easy way to build large structures, such as houses and forts. They fail because the methods they use to connect the pieces of the set are not feasible, don't enable the children to build large structure, or quickly damage the pieces themselves. This application represents years of refinement to produce a novel “turn-key” design that makes it very easy for children to build such structures—or any other large objects they can imagine. The novelty of this approach includes a slotted “Connecting Element” that users can slip between cutout made in the edges of “Planar Elements.” The user inserts the Connecting Element, lines up the slots on the element with the edges of two adjacent Planar Elements, and then rotates the Connecting Element approximately 90 degrees to connect said Planar Elements using friction and compression.

Abstract: The invention is a container comprised of two or more sections that are held together at an interface by one or more joints or seams. Decorative exterior layers can cover or otherwise obscure the seams, or the joints can be obscured or made inconspicuous. Two sections of the container each have a cord that is attached to the exterior side of the sections on opposite sides of the container, and a ring is attached to each cord so that when pulled, the sections of the container separate to reveal the interior of the container. The sections of the container are connected to each other in the interior so when the container is pulled open, the contents in the interior are released while the sections remain connected, and a message banner attached to and extending between the sections is revealed.

Abstract: A harmonica-style goose call is described. A user assumes a blow position and by blowing through a blow space onto a diaphragm which vibrates and emits a tone. The blow space is made from interior profiles of varying depth on engaged housings. This permits the user to alter the pitch of the tone by selectively altering the blow position. In this way, the user can imitate the sound of a goose by altering the blowing three and the blow position.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a race course system for remote controlled boat racing where the outer boundary of the race course is comprised of the exterior walls of a swimming pool enclosure and the internals walls of the race course is comprised of floating devices with connection point for interconnecting the floats and an anchoring device and adjustable length anchor tether attached to the bottom of a number of the floating devices. The floating devices can be attached to each other in various configurations to create various different race course layouts, such as an oval course, a figure “eight” course, or even an intricate “road course” configurations.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for assembling a set of connectable building blocks by using a computing device to access, from wireless communication elements in each block, general information regarding the set of blocks and specific information regarding at least one block of the set that is placed on a conducting mat and each block of the set that is connected to the at least one block on the conducting mat. Structural information regarding structures for assembly using the blocks is accessed based on the general and specific information. A process for assembling a selected structure using the blocks is generated based on all of the accessed information. A lighting element of the at least one block (or a connected block) and a lighting element of at least one block of the set that is not connected to any other block of the set is made to blink based on the process.
