A toy launcher with a housing and a toy projectile holder thereon. A lever arm extends outside the housing and is connected for pivoting movement relative thereto. A piston and cylinder arrangement is located in the housing, with the piston being resiliently biased toward a first end of the cylinder and being moveable toward a second end thereof to a cocked position by the lever arm being pivoted from a first position to a second position. The cylinder is configured to deliver compressed air to the toy projectile holder. A releasable piston catch holds the piston in the cocked position, and is releasable by the trigger or movement of the lever arm itself such that the piston is driven by the biasing element toward the first end of the cylinder to deliver compressed air to the toy projectile holder for launching. The toy projectile can be a foam dart.

A viewing instrument has an optical module having a first light pathway for conveying visible light reflected from an object to an eye of a user viewing the object; a thermal radiation detecting module having a thermal radiation detector adapted to detect thermal radiation emitted from the object being viewed to thereby generate one or more signals; an aiming module having at least one visible light-emitting member electrically connected with the thermal radiation detecting module, wherein the aiming module is adapted to receive the one or more generated signals from the thermal radiation detecting module, and in response to the received one or more signals, project a visible mark along the first light pathway to the eye of the user. The invention also provides a toy gun having the viewing instrument as described above.

There is disclosed a bubble generating apparatus including a body portion, a bubble ring, a blower and a sound sensor. The bubble generating apparatus is designed to generate bubbles in response to sounds detected by the sound sensor. When sound is detected by the sensor, the blower is activated thereby directing air through the bubble ring in response to those sounds.
