  • Patent number: 11679336
    Abstract: A transformable toy transformable so as to be coupled to a model toy and a toy set including the model toy and the transformable toy are provided. The transformable toy includes a transformable body that is transformable into a first state of being independent from the model toy and a second state of partially covering the model toy and being releasably coupled to the model toy. The transformable body incudes a frame portion and a transformation portion. The frame portion partially covers the model toy in the second state of the transformable body. The transformation portion is coupled to the frame portion so as to be rotatable about a corresponding rotation axis. The transformation portion is rotated about the corresponding rotation axis with respect to the frame portion for transformation of the transformable body from one of the first and second states to the other.

  • Patent number: 11673069
    Abstract: A transformable toy transformable so as to be coupled to a model toy and a toy set including the model toy and the transformable toy are provided. The transformable toy includes a transformable body. The transformable body is configured to be transformable into a first state where the transformable body is independent from the model toy and a second state where the transformable body at least partially covers the model toy and is releasably coupled to the model toy. The transformable body includes a pair of grip portions. The pair of grip portions are configured to be rotatable in opposite directions about one rotation axis or a pair of rotation axes and are configured to releasably grip the model toy by being moved toward each other.
