A toy dart includes a deformable cap that safely impacts a target. The cap includes two layers of substantially parallel hollow passages that provide spaces that allow the cap to deform. The lower layer, having two hollow passages, is supported by exterior posts and an interior wall between the two hollow passages. The upper layer, having three hollow passages, is supported by exterior posts and interior walls that are laterally offset from the interior wall of the lower layer. The upper and lower layers are separated vertically by a substantially flat divider. Due to the difference in the number of hollow passages and interior walls in each layer, the upper layer is more rigid than the lower layer such that the lower layer of the cap deforms more than the upper layer of the cap upon initial impact with the target.

The invention relates to a dart head for a toy dart, comprising a body having a hollow stem portion integrally formed with and longitudinally extending from an enlarged, hollow head portion; the head portion and the stem portion being fluidly connected, with the head portion defining at least one first transverse internal head dimension, and the stem portion defining at least one first transverse internal stem dimension; wherein the at least one first transverse internal head dimension is larger than the at least one first transverse internal stem dimension. The invention also relates to a toy dart comprising a dart body connectable with the dart head as described, and a method of manufacturing the dart head as described.

A multiple target electronic dart gaming machine includes multiple targets mounted on opposite sides of a game board of a target assembly that is housed in a cabinet of the gaming machine. A visual display video monitor provides players and observers with game scores and the like. The game board may be axially rotated between at least first and second positions so as to allow game play on the different targets which can be moved into and out of position to aid in gameplay such as deciding which player goes first. Additionally, the position of the game board may be detected through the use of a detector on or in the board.

A toy projectile and method of making the toy projectile is provided herein. The toy projectile having: an elongated dart body secured to a tip assembly, the tip assembly comprising: a tip insert secured to a forward end of the elongated dart body and a tip secured to the tip insert, wherein the tip comprises a styrene ethylene butylene styrene copolymer (SEBS rubber) tip.

Designs and methods are provided for a retractable broadhead blade. In one exemplary embodiment the broadhead blade is configured to be received in a slot in a broadhead body, and moveable between a retracted or in-flight position, and a deployed or target penetrating position. The broadhead blade includes a front end that faces substantially forward when the blade is in the retracted position, a distal end opposite the front end, an outward facing sharpened leading edge between the front end of the blade and the distal end, and an inward facing trailing edge opposite the leading edge. The blade further includes an integral spring member with a contact surface configured to bear against a blade locating portion of a broadhead body when the blade is in the retracted, or in-flight position.

A youth javelin having a tip, a shaft, a handle and a tail wherein the overall length of the youth javelin is in the range of 135 cm to 148 cm, the weight is in the range of 240 g and 265 g, has a balance point in the range of 57 cm and 60 cm measured from the forward end of the tip, and a weight-to-surface-area ratio in the range of 0.2000 g/cm.sup.2 to 0.2585 g/cm.sup.2.
