Magnus effect cylindrical projectile and launcher
The present invention is a toy projectile and launcher system. The lightweight projectile has an exterior surface symmetrically disposed about an imaginary longitudinal axis. The launcher has a holding cavity composed of three semi-flexible sides, two of which sides apply counter-acting forces to the surface of the projectile along the imaginary longitudinal axis. The launcher has a mechanism for applying a motive force perpendicular to the counter-acting force vectors and perpendicular to the projectile's imaginary longitudinal axis. When the motive force is applied to the projectile, the semi-flexible sides deform and return to pre-deformation positions, thereby launching the projectile into flight.
Balloon toy
An interactive toy is shown and described. The toy can be in the shape of a balloon animal, such as a dog, and react in a predetermined manner to user input or stimulus. More specifically, the balloon animal responds and reacts to the user input provided to specific locations on the balloon animal and/or to placement of an object in proximity to or in contact with the balloon animal.

Toy vehicle with novel drive-train control assembly
A toy vehicle with a selectively engageable gear assembly is disclosed. The gear assembly may be selectively placed in a drive position in which a first set of wheels and a second set of wheels are connected to the motor through a first gear train and a second gear train, respectively. The gear assembly may be selectively placed in a freewheel position in which the first set and second set of wheels are disconnected from the motor. The gear assembly is switched from the drive position to the freewheel position using a lever that pivots to move a gear in the first gear train to disconnect the gear and break the first gear train when a gear is moved in the second gear train to disconnect the gear and break the second gear train. Through the lever, the first and second gear trains are positioned in concert.
FORM CHANGING TOY
A form changing toy is provided with a power source being configured to provide power, a first power transmission mechanism, a second power transmission mechanism, a third power transmission mechanism, a connection switching mechanism, and a form switching mechanism. The connection switching mechanism is configured to alternatively switch between a first connection and a second connection. The first connection is between the first power transmission mechanism and the second power transmission mechanism. The second connection is between the first power transmission mechanism and the third power transmission mechanism. The form switching mechanism is configured to switch between a first form and a second form of the form changing toy. The second power transmission mechanism is configured to perform a first operation when the form switching mechanism switches. The third power transmission mechanism is configured to perform a second operation when the form switching mechanism switches.

Hand Operated Gyroscope Device
A hand-held gyroscope toy or gyroscopic muscle conditioning device with an outer shell containing a drive assembly with a spring-loaded drive button at one end that charges and discharges the gearing inside to provide an accelerated rate of rotation to a flywheel inside the outer shell. The resulting high-speed rotation causes a gyro effect that can be employed as either a fidget-type toy or a resistance device for fine motor or muscle development.
