ASSEMBLABLE THREE-DIMENSIONAL STORY AND PICTURE DISPLAY
An assemblable story and picture display may include a plurality of substrates combinable to resemble an object. The assemblable story and picture display may define an outer profile that may resemble an apple, banana, duck, egg, Christmas tree, or any other relatively simple object. Each of the plurality of substrates may define a portion of the outer profile making up the assemblable story and picture display. Each of the plurality of substrates may include a portion of a story or images wherein the story is conveyed sequentially across the plurality of substrates. The assemblable story and picture display may further include an outer decorative image or layer. The assembled story and picture display may include exterior decorative elements indicating the nature of the story depicted on each of the story or display layers.

TOY BUILDING BLOCKS
The invention relates to a toy building block system (100) comprising one or more building blocks (200); and one or more wheels (300); wherein each said building block (200) comprises: a first elongate portion (2) extending in a longitudinal direction (X); a second elongate portion (4) extending in said longitudinal direction (X); an intermediate portion (6) connecting said first elongate portion (2) with said second elongate portion (4) at a middle position (8) thereof; a first end portion (10) extending in a transverse direction (Y), perpendicular to said longitudinal direction (X), from said first elongate portion (2), at a side thereof opposite to said intermediate portion (6), and at a middle position thereof; a second end portion (12) extending in said transverse direction (Y), perpendicular to said longitudinal direction (X), from said second elongate portion (4), at a side opposite to said intermediate portion (6), and at a middle position thereof; said building block thereby comprises six protrusions (14) and two voids (16), wherein each void (16) is being defined between an end of said first elongate portion (2) and an end of said second elongate portion (4). wherein each said wheel (300) comprises a hub (18); and a wheel rim (20); wherein said wheel rim (20) is surrounding said hub (18); and wherein said wheel rim (20) is being attached to said hub (18) in such a way that said wheel rim is configured to be able to swivel around a rotational axis (A) in relation to said hub; wherein said hub (18) at a centre (22) thereof comprises a hole (24) extending in an axial direction (A); wherein the dimensions and geometry of said hole (24) are adapted to the dimensions and geometry of one of said protrusions (14) of said building block (200); so as to be able to accommodate said protrusion (14) and thereby hold said protrusion (14) of said building block (200) in place in said hole (24) of said hub (18) solely by friction.
MULTILAYERED MODEL ASSEMBLIES
Toy model assemblies of multiple planar layer pieces mechanically fastened together with adjustable connectors. Models incorporating the multilayered assemblies can be made to hold their position when the adjustable connectors are tightened. The layer pieces have profiles that represent specific model components some of which rotate about a perpendicular connector in parallel planes. Stratified layer assemblies capturing a specialized connector provide rotation on an axis in the same plane as capturing layers. The model layer pieces are preferably all the same thickness and cut from sheets of quality plywood.
DECORATIVE PELLET AND METHOD
The present invention relates to a kind of decorative pellet and the play method thereof, which can be mounted on the outer surface of objects such as crafts or toys and used to decorate/cover the appearance/shape of the objects. The pellet includes fiber bundle with one end in a free state and another end in an aggregated state, and an end cap which is at the aggregated end of the fiber bundle. The aggregated end of the fiber bundle matches the end of the end cap. The fiber bundle contains a plurality of strands that are assembled at one end to be a joint segment and this joint segment is inserted into the endhole of the end cap. The surface of the strand is smooth and/or rough. The free end of the end cap can be plugged into the outside of the object and establish a tight assembly relationship with the object. When the decorative pellets are used as a decorative part to decorate crafts or toys, they have the advantages of easy installation, replacement/change, and easy optimization, adjustment or resetting of the object appearance scheme. Using the decorative pellets can create new structures for plush toys or items.
Toy with interchangeable parts having selectively engageable fasteners
Toys having interchangeable parts are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a toy includes two or more toy components or modules that can be releasably coupled together. Each toy component can include a (i) a body defining a sound-reflecting chamber having an opening and (ii) a fastener assembly coupled to the body. The fastener assembly can include a base and a fastener positioned in a recess of the base. The base can be positioned over the opening of the sound-reflecting chamber and coupled to the body. The fastener is configured to generate sound when the fastener is engaged to and/or disengaged from the mating fastener of another toy component, and the sound-reflecting chamber is configured to reflect the sound out of the body.
