A marble run track connection arrangement for use with a plurality of physically interconnectable marble run elements includes a marble track section, a tube, and a connector. The marble track section has first and second connecting posts coupled to or forming a portion of a marble travel path of the marble track section. The tube includes a connecting portion configured to directly physically connect to another tube. The connecting portion passes a marble from or to the other tube. The tube also has a side opening configured to receive a marble therethrough into or out of an interior of the first tube. The tube also includes a track connector extending outward from the tube. The connector is configured to receive the first and second connecting posts and to couple to the track connector such that a path is defined between the marble travel path and the interior of the tube.

According to some embodiments, a first toy body comprises a first level oriented in a first direction, and a second level oriented in a second direction. A second toy body comprises a third level oriented in the first direction, and a fourth level oriented in the second direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

A construction kit enables building of complex structures. The kit can include pole connectors, along with a series of hubs. For instance, two-point hubs, four-point hubs, eight-point hubs, five-point hubs, six-point hubs, and a clip can be the constituent parts of the kit. Some of the hubs can be flexible to provide further utility and additional angles for building. Complex structures, such as a ball-shaped connector can also be achieved from the base components.

A connector block for an interlocking block system and an interlocking track system includes a first portion having an intermatable track segment of the track system and a second portion having a block interface of the block system, with the track segment offset from the block system. The second portion preferably includes at least two block interfaces of different genders with each configured to mate with elements of the other gender. The underside of the block interface defines a horizontal lower plane without protrusions and defines protrusion-receiving receptacles. An upper block interface defines a horizontal upper plane and includes a plurality of protrusions extending beyond the upper plane and configured to be received in the protrusion-receiving receptacles. The interoperable connector block may include a sloped track segment, and is preferably a body formed of a single material. The connector block is preferably intermatable with Duplo® and Brio® modular components.

The invention describes a new constructor module with the additive aspects of sound and dynamic construction. A base block is provided with varying mating elements for adjustably connecting structural blocks and plates together with sounding elements. A plurality of base blocks may be constructed based on desired output in various shapes and structures. The base blocks are coupled together with connecting elements and fixing pins, which also assist in coupling the sounding elements. Additional plates are also utilized for creating dynamic sounds and structures, including D-shaped plates and U-shaped plates. Constructor set modules may utilize all such elements in a plurality of structures, or at minimum, only base blocks, connecting elements, a sounding element, and fixing pins.
