Abstract: A toy with repositionable portions is disclosed. The toy may be stylized as a toy figure that may include a leg section and a torso section. The leg section includes legs pivotally coupled to a pelvic section. The pelvic section may also include an upward-extending connection post. The torso section, furthermore, may include a body cylinder that connects to the connection post. The body cylinder includes a series of resilient tabs that slidingly engage the post, securing the sections together while permitting the rotation of the torso section about the post. With this configuration, the toy figure possesses multiple degrees of motion, being adapted to move in bending and twisting motions.

Abstract: The electronic toy of the present invention utilizes numerous switches to detect (1) the actuation of the toy, (2) the identity of a theme card (containing distinct indicia) inserted into the toy, and (3) the position of an indicia selector in relation to the indicia on the theme card inserted in the toy to produce, card specific, and more specifically, card and indicia specific sensory output.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an activity play set including an upper cabinet portion telescopically movable with respect to a lower cabinet portion. The play set is reconfigurable between a collapsed, lower configuration and an extended, higher configuration. A latch mechanism secures the upper cabinet portion in position relative to the lower cabinet portion. The latch mechanism is fixed to the lower cabinet portion and includes outwardly-biased slide members. As the upper cabinet portion and lower cabinet portion slide relative to each other, the outwardly-biased slide member ends contact and slide along slide walls of the upper cabinet portion. Furthermore, the slide walls of the upper cabinet portion include lock openings to receive the slide member ends. To release the latch mechanism to permit the upper cabinet portion to slide relative to the lower cabinet portion, the slide members are compressed inward to retract the slide member ends from the lock openings in the slide walls.
