A scissor pop-up prop module with a stationary base, a scissor linkage, an automation system, and a prop mount for attaching an amusement prop. The scissor linkage articulates in an expansion direction so that the prop mount moves in a linear pop- up direction from a home positions to a displaced position. The automation system suddenly springs the scissor linkage in the expansion direction and then produces gradual controlled movement of the scissor linkage in a contraction direction back to the home position. The prop mount carries a prop mount linkage that is driven to articulate by engagement with the base during a latter phase of pop-up movement of the prop mount from a partially displaced position to the displaced position, to simulate a winged creature spreading its wings as it rises.

A device receives information to be projected from within and onto a mannequin, and receives instructions associated with projection of the information from within and onto the mannequin. A mirror and a projector are provided within the mannequin, and the projector is in optical communication with the mirror. The device causes, based on the instructions, the mirror to be moved from a first location to a second location, the mirror to be rotated from a first position to a second position, the projector to be moved from a third location to a fourth location, or the projector to be rotated from a third position to a fourth position. The device provides the information to the projector, and causes the projector to provide the information at a portion of the mannequin via the mirror, wherein the information is projected from within and onto the mannequin at the portion.

This invention simulates a real campfire by way of shape and form. It is comprised of 2 panels that are easy to quickly assemble. It applies a feature of provisions to install lights into the unit with the ability to incorporate individually addressable programmable lighting that adds an array of features, to include sound reactive lighting, simulated dancing and singing. This unit can replace a traditional campfire and provide entertainment in the form of lighting sequences that simulate a natural campfire.

A display assembly includes a cylindrical rod having a first end and a second end; a panel holder defining a slot and a first passageway; and a panel disposed partially disposed within the slot. The first end of the cylindrical rod is within the first passageway such that the panel and panel holder are rotatable with respect to the rod. Accordingly, when the second end of the rod is inserted into the ground, the panel and panel holder are rotatable about a generally vertical axis

A holiday decoration includes an inflatable figure in the shape of a holiday icon. The lower end of the inflatable figure is located inside a base having upstanding side walls and a hinged lid. A fan is arranged to blow air into the figure to inflate the figure and to keep it inflated. A vertically telescoping pole is located within the figure. Straps or rings connect the upper end of the telescoping pole to the inner wall of the inflatable figure proximate the upper end of the inflatable figure. When the blower is turned off and the figure deflates, the vertical pole telescopes downward under the weight of the collapsing figure. The straps connecting the telescoping pole to the inner surface of the figure ensure that the figure collapses substantially straight down into the base as it deflates.
