Abstract: A toy launcher with a drum magazine assembly that has a rotatable drum portion mounted for rotation, with a rear plate and a central support with an opening for a support axle. A ring of projectile holders is connected to the rear plate, with each projectile holder holding at least two projectiles arranged in a generally radially stacked configuration. Generally radially extending walls are located between adjacent projectile holders. Each of the projectile holders includes a slot on a radially inner side into which a projectile biasing arm extends at a projectile launch position. A pusher is located in the housing adjacent to the projectile launch position. Drive wheels are positioned in front of the drum magazine assembly at the projectile launch position. The drive wheels are motorized so that they rotate to propel a projectile pushed from the drum between the drive wheels for launching the projectile.

Abstract: The invention relates to a magazine assembly for a projectile launching toy. The magazine assembly comprises a first magazine having a first housing for accommodating a plurality of projectiles and a second magazine having a second housing for accommodating a plurality of projectiles. A first connector is integrally formed in an exterior surface of said first housing and a second connector is provided on an exterior surface of said second housing. The first connector is configured to be directly connectable with the second connector to thereby fix the first magazine in a desired position and/or orientation with respect to the second magazine.

Abstract: The invention relates to a toy gun having a barrel; a projectile launching mechanism arranged in a body of the gun for launching a projectile from the gun via the barrel; a plurality of magazines each of which is adapted to accommodate a plurality of projectiles; wherein the plurality of magazines are each arranged to move in turn to a projectile loading position to thereby align a projectile with the barrel for launching by the projectile launching mechanism.

Abstract: A toy gun comprises a barrel and a firing mechanism configured upon actuation to launch a projectile through the barrel or a main part of the barrel. The barrel or the main barrel part can be moved between first and second positions where the barrel or the main barrel part, when in the first position, is not in alignment with a firing mechanism such that, upon actuation of the firing mechanism, a projectile is launched from the toy gun but not through the barrel or the main barrel part and, when in the second position, is aligned with the firing mechanism such that, upon actuation of the firing mechanism, a projectile is launched through the barrel or the main barrel part. The barrel or the main barrel part, when in the first position, may act as a scope for the toy gun. In another arrangement, the toy gun comprises a reconfigurable barrel with the firing mechanism configured such that, upon actuation, it launches a projectile through one or more parts of the barrel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a toy gun comprising a barrel movably connected at a body of the toy gun; a trigger; a recoil mechanism connecting the barrel with the trigger; wherein, when the trigger is actuated, the recoil mechanism is adapted to resiliently move the barrel between a first and a second positions to thereby simulate a recoil effect. The invention also relates to a toy gun comprising a barrel movably connected at a gun body, the barrel comprising an inner sleeve receivable by an outer sleeve, the outer sleeve being movable relative to the inner sleeve; a trigger; and a recoil mechanism adapted to move the outer sleeve of the barrel relative to the inner sleeve to thereby simulate a recoil effect in response to actuation of the trigger.

Abstract: The invention relates to a toy gun. The toy gun comprises a microphone module for receiving an incoming sound signal and converting said incoming sound signal to an outgoing audio signal, and a speaker module for receiving an incoming audio signal and converting said incoming audio signal to an outgoing sound signal; the microphone module and the speaker module being electronically connected with a processing module for processing the incoming and outgoing audio signals; and a communications module for communicating the audio signals between the toy gun and one or more other toy guns or portable audio devices distant to the toy gun; wherein the microphone module and the speaker module are positioned at or near a rear end of the toy gun, such that a user is able to hold and operate the toy gun whilst being able to operate the microphone module without a need to substantially reposition a hand of the user holding the toy gun.

Abstract: The invention relates to a magazine for receiving and accommodating one or more projectiles in a toy gun. The magazine comprises a housing defining a chamber adapted to accommodate the one or more projectiles in a longitudinal, inline arrangement; a first positioning member arranged at the chamber and being movable relative to the housing; wherein the first positioning member comprises one or more first engaging means adapted to engage the one or more projectiles, such that the one or more projectiles are permitted to move longitudinally along the chamber in one direction only in response to a projectile advancing or loading movement of the first positioning member. The invention also relates to a toy gun having the magazine as described.

Abstract: A toy gun comprising: a housing; a plurality of projectile chambers each adapted to house a projectile, each projectile chamber being in fixed relationship with the housing; and a pumping apparatus having a delivery interface alignable with each projectile chamber in a sequence, such that when the delivery interface is aligned with one of the projectile chambers, the pumping apparatus is operable to drive air into said one of the projectile chambers via the delivery interface.

Abstract: A toy gun includes a body, a pinion located in the body and a turning member mounted to rotate about the pinion. A number of barrels each rotate upon the turning member at radial positions. Each barrel has a gear meshing with the pinion. Each barrel has a circular array of projectile-receiving tubes. An indexing mechanism causes the turning member to rotate about the axis whereupon the meshing interaction of the gears with the pinion causes orbital movement of the barrels about the axis as they rotate with respect to the turning member. As a result, each projectile-receiving tube is delivered to the firing position.

Abstract: A toy flashlight includes a body for housing a battery, a light source powered by the battery, a translucent head attached to or formed integrally with the body and into which light from the light source is directed to illuminate the head to give a glowing effect. The head and body are of a foam plastics material that is safe for children.
