A transformable modular toy element is provided. The transformable modular toy element is for use in a toy construction system comprising a plurality of modular toy elements. The transformable modular toy element comprises a body portion and a head portion. The body portion comprises one or more coupling members, the one or more coupling members being adapted for releasably coupling the body portion with modular toy elements of the toy construction system. The head portion is attached to the body portion. The head portion comprises a cavity for receiving the body portion therein. The body portion is moveable with respect to the head portion between a retracted position where the body portion is retracted into the cavity, whereby the transformable modular toy element has a first shape, and a deployed position where the body portion is in the axial direction deployed from the cavity, whereby the transformable modular toy element has a second shape. The transformable modular toy element further comprises first locking means adapted to lock the body portion in the deployed position.

Transformable modular toy element

A toy comprising a rotor and a centrally arranged capsule, wherein the capsule comprises an actuator mechanism that is configured to cooperate with a launch element and an actuator element, wherein the actuator element is configured for engaging with the actuator mechanism to transfer a momentum to the rotor, whereby the rotor can rotate and be launched from the launch element, wherein the capsule is a separate part relative to the rotor, and the capsule comprises at least two capsule parts whereby the two capsule parts can be opened when the rotor and the capsule are separated, and wherein rotor, capsule and actuator mechanism are connected to each other to the effect that the momentum from the actuator element is transferred to the actuator mechanism that conveys the momentum on from the capsule to the rotor, when the at least to capsule parts are closed.

Toy comprising a rotor

A toy comprising a rotor, an actuator means, and a launch device, wherein the rotor comprises an actuator mechanism, and wherein a toy building element comprises a launch device in the form of a cavity configured for receiving the actuator mechanism, and wherein the actuator means can be inserted into a through-going slit opening to cooperate with the actuator mechanism to transfer momentum from the actuator means to the rotor, whereby the rotor can be rotated and launched from the launch device. The toy comprises at least two toy building elements, a first toy building element comprising the launch device and one or more of a first type of coupling means, and a second toy building element provided with one or more of a second types of coupling means that are geometrically configured to relative to the first type of coupling means, whereby the first and second types of coupling means can be releasably interconnected to form a spatial structure comprising the launch device.
