The present invention relates to an interactive toy-set for playing digital media, in particular auditorily recounting a story. The toy-set comprises a housing (10) adapted at receiving one or more placeable tokens (7). The placeable tokens each have a unique identifier incorporated, and the toy-set further comprises a sensing unit (11) for detecting a presence of the one or more placeable tokens (7). A control unit is adapted at selecting a track and a track index number from a number of indexed tracks based on the detected identifier of the one or more placeable tokens, whereby the track and track index is determined based on a specific unique role attributed to each placeable token (7). The interactive toy-set further comprises an output unit for outputting the track and the present invention also concerns a method for operating a toy-set for playing digital media in analogous fashion.

A model display stand is an apparatus that is used to display model cars in a position simulating the act of burning rubber. The apparatus includes a base panel, a propping tab, a first smoke-cloud-shaped wall, a second smoke-cloud-shaped wall, a first smoke-trail-shaped protrusion, and a second smoke-trail-shaped protrusion. The base panel serves to support portions of a model car when the model car is mounted onto the apparatus. The propping tab serves to elevate portions of the model car to display the model car in a wheelie position. The first smoke-cloud-shaped wall and the second cloud-shaped wall surround the base panel and the model car mounted onto the base panel. Along with the first smoke-trail-shaped protrusion and the second smoke-trail-shaped protrusion, the first smoke-cloud-shaped wall and the second smoke-cloud-shaped wall also serve to simulate the act of burning rubber by the model car.

A system for action figure entertainment that includes: a box, where the box includes an inner attachment surface and said box is adapted to release to a flat surface; attachment pegs over the flat surface; at least one attachable action figure for placement on the inner attachment surface; and at least one decorative attachment for placement on the inner attachment surface.

A system allows its users to manually move about a plurality of characters, before one or more prop scenes, in front of a physical (or digital) background scene. Using a holder/stand with a specially angled mirror, a device on that holder/stand is able to record real time movements and interactions between the characters and/or prop objects. A method for making animated videos with this system is also disclosed.

In accordance with the present invention, a stand-alone pop up assembly and method for making the same is provided comprising a plurality of wall panels connected with an internal base. A roof structure is provided and a roof interface component for attaching the roof to the structure. The assembly is moveable between a first position being substantially flat into a one dimensional structure and a second position enfolded into a three dimensional structure by manipulating the outer structure and the internal base. The roof interface component may swivel into place during the movement to the three dimensional structure, thereby positioning the roof structure over the upper portions of the first and second panel walls or, alternatively, a sliding feature is provided with a tab from the roof inserted into a slot at the top of one of the panel walls, thereby sliding the roof into position.
