A toy road paving device (toy dispenser) is provided that simulates a real-world road paving machine by dispensing, laying down, cutting, and smoothing either one or multiple strips of spooled tape material upon a hard, flat surface such as a table or floor. The device “paves” the tape road easily, smoothly, evenly, and without the risk of tearing the tape material from excess stress. More generally, the device can lay out any toy play surface printed on tape, a strip of paper, or other material. The device can be operated manually or mechanically powered.

a second end portion (12) extending in said transverse direction (Y), perpendicular to said longitudinal direction (X), from said second elongate portion (4), at a side opposite to said intermediate portion (6), and at a middle position thereof;
said building block thereby comprises six protrusions (14) and two voids (16), wherein each void (16) is being defined between an end of said first elongate portion (2) and an end of said second elongate portion (4).
wherein each said wheel (300) comprises a hub (18); and a wheel rim (20);
wherein said wheel rim (20) is surrounding said hub (18); and wherein said wheel rim (20) is being attached to said hub (18) in such a way that said wheel rim is configured to be able to swivel around a rotational axis (A) in relation to said hub;
wherein said hub (18) at a centre (22) thereof comprises a hole (24) extending in an axial direction (A); wherein the dimensions and geometry of said hole (24) are adapted to the dimensions and geometry of one of said protrusions (14) of said building block (200); so as to be able to accommodate said protrusion (14) and thereby hold said protrusion (14) of said building block (200) in place in said hole (24) of said hub (18) solely by friction.

A drift motorcycle includes a body and an advancing unit provided on the body and configured to provide advancing power for the body, and the body is further provided with a tilting unit and a transverse moving unit. The tilting unit is movably mounted on the body, and two ends of the tilting unit extend from two sides of the body to control the body to be switched between an upright state and a tilted state. The transverse moving unit is arranged at two sides of the body, and the transverse moving unit is configured to be in contact with a driving surface to generate a transverse power in a width direction of the body when the tilting unit controls the body to be switched to the tilted state.

A model vehicle is a combination of a wooden body and a wheel assembly providing free rolling wheels to provide increased functionality, usability, durability and nostalgic quality design. The wheel assembly includes a molded body, metal wire axles traversing the molded body and wheels mounted to each end of the axles. The wheel assembly is mounted to an underside of the wood body. The molded body may include an opening to allow a screw to pass therethrough to secure the wheel assembly to the wood body. The molded body may include a protrusion to assist with alignment of the wheel assembly and wood body. The molded body may include a receptacle to house a magnet to enable connection to an additional model vehicle to be towed. The wood body may include a lower piece and an upper piece secured together.

Connection systems for toy construction pieces, toy construction pieces, and toy construction kits. A connection system includes a male connection element and a female connection element. The male connection element includes a peg unit with a connector peg. The female connection element includes at least a portion of a connector core that defines a receiver cavity configured to receive at least a portion of the connector peg and at least a portion of a core shell. A toy construction kit for assembling a constructed assembly includes a plurality of toy construction pieces that collectively embody the connection system. A first construction piece includes the male connection element and a second construction piece includes the female connection element. The connection system is configured to selectively and repeatedly couple the first construction piece and the second construction piece to one another.

Components may be used to build a three-dimensional (3-D) model. The components can include supports and connectors. A subset of components can be selected based on the 3-D model. The subset of components can be used to build the 3-D model.

In one aspect, there is provided a toy vehicle that includes a vehicle body, at least one motor and a plurality of wheels. The at least one motor is mounted to the vehicle body, and is sized to have a selected amount of torque. The plurality of wheels includes at least one driven wheel which includes at least one flip-over wheel which has an axis closer to one end of the vehicle than the other end. In an upright orientation the vehicle body extends above the plurality of wheels. The toy vehicle has a centre of gravity that is positioned, such that, application of torque from the at least one motor causes the vehicle body to drive rotation of the vehicle body about the axis of rotation from an inverted orientation over to the upright orientation.

A transformable toy vehicle hauler comprises a trailer portion that includes three or more trailer sections pivotably coupled end-to-end. A cabin portion is connected to the trailer portion and includes a toy vehicle launcher. The toy vehicle hauler is capable of being configured in a transport configuration where the three or more trailer sections are folded together in a zigzag pattern and a raceway configuration where the three or more trailer sections are unfolded to form a straight track.

A radio controlled model vehicle system, transmitter, and method are provided. The radio controlled model vehicle system includes a transmitter containing a transbrake actuator and a throttle input producing throttle commands. The radio controlled model vehicle may include a receiver that receives the throttle commands sent by the transmitter. Wherein the transmitter sends the throttle command corresponding to a position of the throttle input to the receiver when the transbrake actuator is not engaged and sends a throttle command corresponding to a neutral position of the throttle input when the transbrake actuator is engaged. In addition, wherein a motor of the radio controlled model vehicle is powered at a rate corresponding to the throttle command.

The self-propelled toy includes a vehicle body, wheels connected to the vehicle body, a battery provided at the vehicle body, a motor using electric power stored in the battery to output drive power for running use, an imaging device connected to the vehicle body so as to capture an image of an area in front of the self-propelled toy, an operating part operated by a user so as to make the imaging device operate, and a charging port supplying electric power from an outside power source to the battery. The operating part is provided at a top part of the vehicle body at one side from a centerline of vehicle width of the self-propelled toy, and the charging port is provided at a side part of the vehicle body at the same side as the operating part from the centerline of vehicle width.
