A toy doll, posable and simulating stances or positions and movements of a skater, dancer or the like. The device includes a torso with arms and leg which may be frictionally pivotably connected to the torso to enable posing the doll in a wide variety of positions. The doll is supported atop a self-propelled base by engagement of a foot or skate, such as an ice skate, roller skate, roller blade or the like, with a platform which forms a portion of the upper surface of the base. The base is supported by a front wheel and by two spaced apart rear wheels. The base is propelled by one rear wheel and steered by a replaceable profile cam-guided front wheel. The platform is rotated along with the doll about an upright axis as the base is propelled over a horizontal surface through a repeated geometric pattern defined by the particular profile cam selected.

A removable maternity dress for a doll which simulates pregnancy and child delivery and which may be easily adapted to a conventional doll. The invention includes a doll dress preferably made of non-stretchable flexible fabric having a concealed upright front pocket connected thereto. The pocket is sized to receive a baby doll insertable therein through a flapped lower opening at the bottom of the pocket. Removal of the baby doll from the pocket downwardly through the lower opening simulates child birth. A front opening in the dress adjacent the pocket coverable by an apron-like fabric sheet may also be provided. A layer of flexible latex or the like connected to and extending across the front opening simulates the appearance of the pregnant mid section of the doll. A liquid or gel-filled bladder attached between the front of the dress and the pocket affords a more realistic sensation of touch of the baby doll within the pocket. A lenticular screen positioned over an image of the baby doll and having a transducer-like extension therefrom affords simulated kicking movement of the baby doll as found on an ultrasound machine.

Maternity dress for a doll which simulates pregnancy

A three-dimensional fashion doll having removable and interchangeable flexible fabric clothing which simulates the appearance and feel of real clothing. The clothing includes a removable lower body dress or the like having a resilient waistband connected at the corresponding upper end of the dress which biasingly engages around the waist region of the doll to releasably hold the dress in position. Flexible fabric doll clothing for the upper body may be separate having a resilient under-jacket which biasingly engages over the doll's shoulders to hold the upper body clothing connected over the resilient jacket in proper position on the doll. The upper body clothing may also be fabricated of stiff, self-supporting fabric structured to cover the frontal upper torso region and supportedly connected at the lower end thereof to the upper end of the lower body clothing.

A propellable articulating animal toy having a flexible, pliable stuffed body which simulates an animal, preferably a puppy, having freely moveable body components. The body fits over a housing which includes at least one ground-engaging support wheel connected within the housing. The housing also includes a forwardly extending lever pivotally mounted in the housing and structured to be pivotally articulated up and down through an acute angle by eccentric driving engagement with the wheel as the toy is manually propelled over a flat surface. The animal body also covering the lever is thus made to bob up and down appearing to be running or jumping as the toy is propelled over the flat surface. Although only the forwardly portion of the animal body is articulated by the pivoting movement of the lever, the entire body and all body components take on a realistic running motion due to the pliable nature of the animal body and its plush covering, which may also be made removable for holding and cuddling. A bellows may also be included which produces a sound similar to that of the particular animal such as the bark of a dog. The bellows is operably moved by the interior portion of the lever so as to produce a sound coincident with the running motion. The preferred embodiment includes a rearwardly and upwardly extending push handle for propelling the toy across the ground and a detachable leash to add to the realism of the toy.

A graphic arts toy including a string retaining sketch pad, an elongated string, and means for storing, dispensing and retracting the string. The string retaining sketch pad comprises a flexible, plate-like element having a plurality of upwardly extending, flexible fingers on its top. The fingers are arrayed in equally spaced, parallel, transverse rows. The means for storing, dispensing and retracting the string comprises a string storage, dispensing and retracting pencil having a housing, a string storage dispensing and retracting reel rotatably mounted in the housing, and a string dispensing and retracting tube with one of its ends in the housing and the other of its ends exterior to the housing. When the tube is moved between a pair of fingers, the fingers are flexed apart and the string dispensed there between. The fingers return to their normal position to grip and hold the string after the tube moves to the next pair of fingers.

A talking figure play set comprising an environmental structure having a record player with an upwardly pointing stylus on its tone arm and a plurality of human figures or animal figures, or both, each having an open-bottom base with a phonograph record permanently recessed therein. The tone arm with its upwardly pointing stylus is recessed in a circular opening in the housing of the record player along with support means, such as a ledge or rim, for the open-bottom bases of the various figures. The phonograph record recessed in the open-bottom base of each figure has a sound recording on spiral grooves which is compatible with the appearance of the figure. When the open-bottom base of one of the figures is inserted in the circular opening in the housing of the record player, the record player is turned on to reproduce the sound recording associated with the particular figure while that figure remains stationary to allow a child to perceive the figure as a talking figure.

An electrically lighted plush toy having a glowing face or head. A semi-rigid vinyl, hollow, translucent head has a plush exterior cover attached thereto. The plush exterior cover encloses a resilient mass which surrounds an essentially cylindrical, molded plastic, translucent battery and lightbulb housing. A retaining ring in the neck portion of the head coaxially positions and retains the housing. The housing has an integrally molded battery compartment, an integrally molded globe for enclosing a lightbulb, and an integrally molded operating lever positioned on its exterior. A first electrical conductor and a second electrical conductor are positioned in the interior of the housing with at least one battery and a lightbulb. The operating lever is adapted for depressing the first electrical conductor through an opening in the housing to contact the second electrical circuit and complete an electrical circuit formed by the electrical conductors, battery and lightbulb to light the lightbulb. When pressure is applied to the front of the exterior cover of the plush toy, the resilient mass depresses the operating lever which in turn depresses the first electrical conductor to light the lightbulb and cause the face or head of the plush toy to glow.
