Abstract: The present disclosure, in one embodiment, relates to a randomizer that includes a starter assembly and a collector. The starter assembly provides participants in a race with a fair start and also provides spectators with a beneficial view of the not only the start of the race, but in some cases, the race itself, including the finish.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a plurality of interconnectable modular members that may create a pathway system with multiple entrances into the upper portion of each member and at least one exit from the lower portion of each member, thereby providing for a variety of convergence and divergence possibilities. The pathway system is suitable for receiving and transporting marbles and other spherical objects from one member to another. The modular members may be interlinked via male/female connectors to create a variety of configurations.

Abstract: A bobble head doll shaker includes a base and housing and a supporting platform that is hingedly mounted to the housing. A motor drives an agitator that lifts and releases the supporting platform, thereby imparting an oscillating motion to a bobble head doll supported on the platform. The agitator includes engagement portions that lift the supporting platform. The motor has variable speed and agitator elements having different profiles that may be interchanged to achieve a greater variability of the oscillating motion. Moreover, with the hinge attachment, the bobble head doll's position and corresponding movement may be varied by changing its location on the supporting platform. A riser element may also be placed under the doll to increase the instability of the doll and provide for further varying the bobble head doll motion.
