A modular toy (1) allowing easy assembly for children has a frame (3), a bridge (23), and a hub assembly (27) as primary features. The frame and bridge have slots (5, 6), which in turn have fasteners (7). The hub assembly snaps or otherwise removably mounts in the slots. This allows toy pieces, such as gears (57, 59), to be placed on the hub assemblies. The gears can be rotated on the hubs and effect movement of other gears attached to other hubs. The slots are generally equally spaced so that children have an easy method of effecting the movement.

Construction toy figure

A marble race toy (4) for use with a marble race game (2) of the type in which a marble (6) moves along a tortuous path. The toy alters the path of the marbles rolling through the game along a track (16) and includes a downwardly sloping first portion (10) extending from an entrance (18) and continuous with an upwardly sloping second portion (12). The toy includes a third portion (14) parallel to the second portion. The third portion includes an upper end (28) coupled to the second portion by a U-shaped track portion (34) for generally reversing the direction of the marble, and a lower end (30) which opens into the exit. An escape (36) couples the second and third ends (22, 24) of the first and second track portions to the exit to allow the marble to move through the toy, bypassing the third track portion.
