1 . A propeller system, comprising: 
 a rotating member including one or more blade portions configured to couple to each other;    a support portion; and    an axle portion configured to couple said rotating member and said support portion.    
   
   
       2 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising a base portion configured to couple to said support portion.  
   
   
       3 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising a base portion configured to couple to said support portion and to a novelty.  
   
   
       4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said one or more blade portions comprise an alternating extending portion and flat portion, such that said extending portion of one of said one or more blade portions will correspond to said flat portion of another said one or more blade portions, such that said one or more blade portions couple together.  
   
   
       5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said one or more blade portions comprise an aperture configured to allow said axle to extend therethrough.  
   
   
       6 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said one or more blade portions couple together via a friction fit.  
   
   
       7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said blade portions are selectively couplable, such that they may be uncoupled to allow them to be enclosed in a smaller package than when coupled.  
   
   
       8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said support portion is configured with a support aperture configured to allow said axle to extend therethrough, to allow said axle portion to couple to said one or more blade portions and to said support portion.  
   
   
       9 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said axle portion comprises a post, and one or more retaining members configured to couple to said post.  
   
   
       10 . A propeller system, comprising: 
 one or more blade portions configured with an aperture, and configured to couple to each other;    a support portion is configured with a support aperture;    an axle portion configured to extend through said aperture(s) of said one or more blade portions and said support aperture to couple them; and    a base portion configured to couple to said support portion.    
   
   
       11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein said one or more blade portions comprise an alternating extending portion and flat portion, such that said extending portion of one blade portion will correspond to said flat portion of another blade portion, such that the blade portions couple together.  
   
   
       12 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein said one or more blade portions couple together via a friction fit.  
   
   
       13 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein said blade portions are selectively couplable, such that they may be uncoupled to allow them to be enclosed in a smaller package than when coupled.  
   
   
       14 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein said axle portion comprises: 
 a post portion; and    one or more retaining members configured to couple to said post.    
   
   
       15 . An apparatus that resembles an aircraft, comprising: 
 a fuselage portion;    at least one wing portion coupled to said fuselage portion; and    a propeller system coupled to said at least one wing portion or said fuselage portion, comprising: 
 one or more blade portions configured to couple to each other;  
 a support portion; and  
 an axle configured to rotationally couple said one or more blade portions and said support portion.  
   
   
   
       16 . The apparatus of  claim 15 , further comprising a base portion configured to couple to said support portion and to said at least one wing portion.  
   
   
       17 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said one or more blade portions couple together via a friction fit.  
   
   
       18 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said blade portions are selectively couplable, such that they may be uncoupled to allow them to be enclosed in a smaller package than when coupled.  
   
   
       19 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said one or more blade portions comprise an alternating extending portion and flat portion, such that said extending portion of one blade portion will correspond to said flat portion of another blade portion, such that the blade portions couple together.  
   
   
       20 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said one or more blade portions couple together via an interference fit.  
   
   
       21 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said axle portion comprises: 
 a post portion; and    one or more retaining members configured to couple to said post.    
   
   
       22 . The novelty of  claim 15 , wherein said apparatus is a kite.  
   
   
       23 . The novelty of  claim 15 , wherein said apparatus is a scale model.  
   
   
       24 . A propeller, comprising: 
 one or more blade portions including a coupling structure;    wherein said coupling structure comprises an alternating extending portion and flat portion, such that said extending portion of one blade portion will correspond to said flat portion of another blade portion, such that the blade portions couple together.    
   
   
       25 . The system of  claim 24 , wherein said blade portions are selectively couplable, such that they may be uncoupled to allow them to be enclosed in a smaller package than when coupled.  
   
   
       26 . A propeller system, comprising: 
 one or more blade portions configured to couple to each other; and    an axle portion configured to couple to said one or more blade portions.    
   
   
       27 . The system of  claim 26 , wherein said one or more blade portions couple together via a friction fit.
