Abstract

A toy for launching a projectile is described. The toy comprisies a body and a resiliently flexible tongue attached to the body at a first end. The resiliently flexible tongue includes a free second end adapted to be initially displaced from the body and released by a user so as to resiliently flex in a direction opposite from which it was initially displaced in order to strike and launch the projectile.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates generally to a toy launching device, and more particularly to a toy launching device for striking and launching a projectile in a pre-selected orientation. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Toys for launching projectiles provide a constant source of amusement to children. Such toys may be entertaining in and of themselves or they may be components of a more comprehensive game or system of games. In order to achieve lasting enjoyment, such toys should be easy to operate and they should perform consistently. Unfortunately, such toys often include several parts and complex mechanisms that can render the toys expensive. Also, although such toys provide for initial enjoyment, they are often quickly rendered useless due to breakage of complex parts, normal wear and / or inconsistent performance attributes. Therefore, what is needed in the art is an improved toy for launching a projectile. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] Embodiment...
