A magnetic holder for painting and displaying toy vehicles. An upright T-shaped member fits in a receiving cup affixed to a horizontal plate. The top of the T-shaped member has at least one outwardly facing magnet that latches a corresponding magnet in a toy vehicle.

A combination has a flat fabric doll with applied grommets for attaching reversible clothing and accessories. A doll head and torso joins by sewing to a front surface with arms and legs extending from beneath and adding depth to the doll. Grommets join to the torso and to reversible clothing. A brad or button threaded with pipe cleaner passes through the reversible clothing grommet and the doll torso grommet and exits the rear surface and bends for securement. A grommet applied above the head on the front surface receives a fabric loop for holding flat a doll during play. The invention also has another loop or label upon the rear surface that secures the doll to a stand by slipping over an upright pole of the stand.

A stability controlled system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor, a memory storing a software code, a moveable component, and a tilt sensor. The hardware processor executes the software code to monitor the tilt sensor to determine whether the system is at a tilt with respect to a support surface for the system. When the tilt sensor is sensing the tilt with respect to the support surface: when the moveable component is off, the software code prevents the moveable component from turning on, and when the moveable component is on, the software code performs one of (a) turning off the moveable component, and (b) slowing down a regular rate of motion of the moveable component. When the tilt sensor is not sensing the tilt with respect to the support surface, the software code permits the moveable component to be turned on and have the regular rate of motion.

A backpack assembly having shoulder straps and a character that is affixed to the backpack. The character has at least one externally visible feature that can be selectively moved between a first position and a second position. The movement of the feature is performed by an actuator that is built into the character. The actuator operates to move the character's features when activated by the person wearing the backpack. A manually operated controller is positioned on at least one of the shoulder straps. A control umbilical interconnects the manually operated controller to the actuator. The control umbilical, in the form of a pneumatic tube or a mechanical cable, is directed through the shoulder strap, across the bag, and to the actuators in the character.

A packaging assembly for a toy figurine includes a hanging assembly and a main body. The hanging assembly includes a hook and a platform configured to support a toy figurine proximate. The main body includes an interior cavity, a top with a slot that provides access to the interior cavity, and a bottom with an opening that provides access to the interior cavity. The slot is sized to allow the hook, but not the platform, to move therethrough into or out of the interior cavity. The opening is sized to allow the hanging assembly to move therethrough into or out of the interior cavity. The toy figurine may be disposed within the interior cavity when the hanging assembly is in the first configuration. Meanwhile, the main body and the hanging assembly may resemble a toy vehicle when the hanging assembly is in the second configuration.

Implementations of a decorative rotating lawn sprinkler are provided. In some implementations, the decorative rotating lawn sprinkler comprises a rotating sprinkler head, a figurine, piping, and a support.

In some implementations, an example method of use of the decorative rotating lawn sprinkler comprises anchoring or otherwise supporting the decorative rotating lawn sprinkler on a lawn or other surface, connecting the decorative rotating lawn sprinkler to a water source, and operating the decorative rotating lawn sprinkler to disperse water from the connected water source over a circular or semi-circular area of the lawn or other vegetation.

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.

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.

In an aspect, a toy assembly is provided and includes a housing and an inner object inside the housing. The inner object includes a breakout mechanism that is operable to break the housing to expose the inner object. A pushbutton that is provided on the inner object can be pressed by pressing a correct spot on the housing. The pushbutton controls operation of an LED in the inner object, wherein the LED, when illuminated, is visible through the housing.
