In one embodiment, an article of manufacture includes a plurality of nestable, identically sized building blocks, each block having at least one inward-slanting side wall connected to a top surface of the block at an edge of the block, wherein a first block defines a hollow interior space adapted to receive a second block in a nested configuration. One or more of the blocks have one or more recesses on the top surface that are each designed to receive a portion of the bottom edge of another block, thereby providing increased stability for non-nested configurations. A recess may have a curved shape that can receive a curved portion of another block at different angular orientations of the blocks. The recesses may engage another block's bottom edge in a non-interlocking manner or in an interlocking manner.

The invention concerns a toy system comprising a toy figurine and a spinner body, the spinner body having an elongate axis; a sidewall; and a bottom wall, wherein said sidewall of the spinner body comprises a top rim; an outside surface; and an inside surface, wherein said bottom wall comprises an outside bottom surface; and an inside bottom surface, wherein the inner bottom surface comprises first connection means for releasably connecting second connection means of said toy figurine to the toy spinning top, wherein said sidewall has a height from said inner bottom surface of said top rim, and wherein the height from said inner bottom surface to said top rim is equal a height of the toy figurine from second connection means formed at one end of legs to a shoulder portion of a body formed between the legs and a head resting on said shoulder portion.

A numerical operation system for a plurality of individuals includes a contactless communication tag each included in a plurality of individuals, a reader allowed to read the contactless communication tag, and a control unit to which a result read by the reader is input, wherein the control unit is configured such as to acquire, from the result read by the reader, at least numerical values each corresponding to the plurality of individuals and operator symbols for operating the numerical values to calculate a total value based on the numerical values and the operator symbols.

Disclosed is an asymmetric toy module, which comprises a sheet-shaped square module body. The front surface of the module body is provided with a first combining element. At least one side surface of the module body is provided with a second combining element combined with the first combining element. The second combining elements on at least two opposite side surfaces are arranged asymmetrically. A combined toy set comprises a plurality of the asymmetric toy modules and a plurality of connecting modules, wherein the second combining element of one of the asymmetric toy modules is combined with the first combining element of the other asymmetric toy module, and the two asymmetric toy modules can also be connected together through the connecting modules. The asymmetric toy module achieves presentation levels and can form various exquisite assembled structures through a simple and rapid combination of the modules, thereby having high flexibility.

Circuit blocks are provided. A circuit block may include a substrate and at least one electrical component mounted on the substrate. The circuit block may also include a non-conductive frame coupled to the substrate, and at least one post coupled to the substrate and extending from the substrate and through at least a portion of the frame in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the major surface of the substrate. Moreover, the circuit block may include a contact coupled to a second, opposite surface of the substrate and including a corner section projecting outwardly from the frame and extending in at least two directions substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the at least one post. The block may also include at least one magnet positioned proximate the flexible corner section of the contact and configured to magnetically attract at least one other circuit block.

A construction toy includes a housing and a connector coupled to the housing. The connector may be configured to selectively couple the construction toy to a second construction toy. The connector may be adjustable between at least two connectivity states. The construction toy may also include an operating assembly configured to adjust the connector between the at least two connectivity states. The construction toy may further include a power source configured to supply power to at least the operating assembly.

Methods and apparatus for removably or irremovably interconnectable building block containers such as those capable of initially storing consumable items such as food and drink. After consumption of the food or drink, the cavity containing same may be cleaned and/or refilled with consumable or non-consumable items. The building block containers are utilized as building block toys and may be manufactured or otherwise designed to be collectable. In one aspect, the container connectors are nearly identical such that any one connector may mate with any other connector. In another aspect, the connectors are nearly identical but the orientations of each connector vary to allow mating to occur when the connectors are properly oriented. In another aspect, the container is a cube juice box with connectors on all four corners of all six sides of the container. A frame for holding a juice container may also be utilized.

A toy assembling apparatus is disclosed. The toy assembling apparatus includes at least one connector, and each connector having at least one of a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion. The first connecting portion includes a connection plate and a connection pillar disposed on the connection plate. The second connecting portion includes a left side board, a right side board, a back side board, a bottom board, and a top board, which jointly form a containing slot for inserting the first connecting portion. The containing slot includes a plate slot for containing the connection plate and a pillar slot for containing the connection pillar. Limit grooves or limit protrudes are formed on the connection pillar. The pillar slot has protrudes or grooves formed thereon correspondingly. The limit grooves match the limit protrudes, such that the first connecting portion matches the second connecting portion of another connector tightly.

The present invention relates to a cap for being decorated with an assembly such as a block or toy, and more specifically the cap includes a base block plate (10) adhered to, detachably attached to, or assembled with the head covering part (3) or visor (5) of the cap for connecting with an assembly such as a decoration block or toy, wherein the base block plate (10) has an assembling part (15) for connecting with an assembly (20) such as a decoration block or toy in various forms and shapes for decoration, so as to provide profitable functions of decoration, use as a toy, and developing intelligence in addition to the head covering function.
