Abstract:
A toy vehicle carrycase includes a top portion and a bottom portion joined by a hinge to be movable between an open position and a closed position. The bottom portion is divided into a plurality of open top compartments for receiving toy vehicles. The top portion defines an angled raceway and inner and outer track walls on its upper surface.
Abstract:
A playset for use with a toy vehicle including an elongate track defining at least one travel path. In some examples, the playset includes a switching mechanism for switching a toy vehicle between different travel paths. In some examples, the playset includes an obstacle mechanism for selectively deploying an obstacle in at least one travel path. In some examples, the playset includes indicator mechanisms, including an active indicator mechanism and a passive indicator mechanism.
Abstract:
A toy vehicle carrier is fabricated to generally resemble a semi tractor- trailer combination. The tractor is substantially conventional in fabrication and is shaped to resemble the tractor of an over the road or long haul truck. The trailer is fabricated to be transformable between a closed configuration and an open configuration and is fabricated of a trailer bed supporting a pair of generally mirror image halves which pivot upon the trailer bed between the open and closed configuration of the trailer. In the closed configuration, a plurality of cooperating latches maintain the trailer closure. In the open configuration, a play environment of a fanciful nature is provided. The interior of the trailer is suitable for receiving and carrying one or more toy vehicles in a fully enclosed environment.
Abstract:
A toy vehicle includes a body supported by a plurality of wheels. The body also includes a roof and rear window supporting a plurality of user inputs. Within the toy vehicle body, a microprocessor controlled drive and steering mechanism is operative. The operation of the microprocessor is set by the user inputs. The body further supports a movable bumper mouth and movable eyes and eyebrows behind the windshield.
Abstract:
A toy vehicle includes a body supported by a plurality of wheels. The body defines a roof supported above a plurality of windows including a transparent windshield. A pair of movable eyes and eyebrows are supported behind the windshield. A control button is supported upon the toy vehicle roof and is coupled to the eyes and eyebrows by a linkage to affect eye and eyebrow expression changes.

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a device for attaching items to a surface, including attachment devices for attaching the device to the surface and pressure components connected to the attachment device, the pressure component having an upturned lip. The device may comprise a rib on a bottom surface to receive the attachment device such as adhesive, putty, fasteners, magnets, suction cups, etc. Pressure components may be biased toward the surface or a plate. Pressure may be applied between the pressure components and the surface or plate due to a curved lip on the pressure component. The pressure component and plate may be biased toward each other. The device may comprise an attachment core configured to receive the attachment device and attach to the pressure components. The device may include promotional designs or markings, and/or may be configured to hold items in a substantially non-coplanar arrangement with the surface.
Abstract:
In one exemplary embodiment, a toy for use with at least one toy vehicle is provided, the toy having a structure configured to be orientated into a first configuration and a second configuration. A first vehicle path is provided through the structure when the structure is in the first configuration. A second vehicle path is provided through the structure when the structure is in the second configuration. A first trigger mechanism provided for converting the structure from the first configuration into the second configuration, wherein a first toy vehicle travelling along the first vehicle path actuates the trigger mechanism.
