Abstract
A unique audible message or information delivery system particularly suited for toys is realized by providing each model or type of toy in a particular group or class with a unique identification code and also providing a message delivery and handling assembly which incorporates a plurality of independent messages, each of which are specifically related to one particular toy model and are constructed for being delivered by the message delivery assembly upon receipt of the particular identification code. In this way, whenever a toy model interfaces with the information/message delivery assembly, the unique, identifying code associated with the model is received by the information/message delivery assembly and is processed for activating the audible presentation of the specifically designated message associated with that particular model. By employing this invention, every different model or type of toy in a group or class of toys is able to interface with the same information/message delivery assembly and cause a different, unique, specifically designated message to be audibly delivered. By providing an audio producing information delivery assembly uniquely constructed for a particular group or class of toys, any toy group or class is capable of being constructed with identification codes associated therewith for having specially designated messages audibly delivered in response to receipt of a particular code.
