Abstract

A reconfigurable toy comprising of a body, a plurality of wheels operatively coupled with the body, and at least one leg assembly operatively coupled with the body, wherein the toy is reconfigurable between a vehicle configuration where at least one of the wheels is in contact with a ground surface and a power suit configuration where the at least one leg assembly is in contact with the ground surface and at least one of the wheels is spaced from the ground surface.

1 . A reconfigurable toy comprising: 
 a body,    a plurality of wheels operatively coupled with the body, and    at least one leg assembly operatively coupled with the body, wherein the toy is reconfigurable between a vehicle configuration where at least one of the wheels is in contact with a ground surface and a power suit configuration where the at least one leg assembly is in contact with the ground surface and at least one of the wheels is spaced from the ground surface.    
   
   
       2 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the body, the plurality of wheels and the leg assembly remain operatively coupled throughout the reconfiguration between the vehicle configuration and the power suit configuration.  
   
   
       3 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the toy comprises three wheels.  
   
   
       4 . The toy of  claim 3 , wherein the toy includes a rear wheel and two front wheels in the vehicle configuration.  
   
   
       5 . The toy of  claim 4 , wherein the front wheels each form a portion of a knee joint in the power suit configuration.  
   
   
       6 . The toy of  claim 4 , wherein the front wheels are substantially disposed within a space defined by a front portion, a knee joint and a lower leg.  
   
   
       7 . The toy of  claim 6 , wherein the front portion is configured to receive the lower leg during reconfiguration of the toy from the power suit configuration to the vehicle configuration.  
   
   
       8 . The toy of  claim 4 , wherein at least one wheel forms a portion of a knee joint in the power suit configuration.  
   
   
       9 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the leg assembly includes a lower leg and a foot section.  
   
   
       10 . The toy of  claim 9 , wherein the lower leg is moveable relative the foot section.  
   
   
       11 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the leg assembly includes a knee joint configured to enable rotation of a lower leg relative to a front section.  
   
   
       12 . The toy of  claim 1 , comprising a cockpit for receiving an action figure.  
   
   
       13 . The toy of  claim 1 , further comprising a trigger configured upon activation to effect at least partial disassembly of the toy.  
   
   
       14 . A toy comprising: 
 a frame reconfigurable between a vehicle configuration and a power suit configuration, wherein the power suit configuration simulates a jumping activity;    a cockpit for receiving an action figure in both the vehicle configuration and the power suit configuration;    at least one releasable member accessible in both the vehicle configuration and the power suit configuration; and    a trigger configured to be actuated to effect release of the member.    
   
   
       15 . The toy of  claim 14 , wherein the frame comprises a plurality of wheels.  
   
   
       16 . The toy of  claim 15 , where two front wheels and a back wheel engage a ground surface in the vehicle configuration.  
   
   
       17 . The toy of  claim 15 , where in the power suit configuration the plurality of wheels are spaced from a ground surface.  
   
   
       18 . The toy of  claim 14 , where the frame comprises a leg assembly configured to extend to a ground surface in the power suit configuration.  
   
   
       19 . A toy power suit comprising: 
 a frame corresponding to the shape of a humanoid figure jumping, including a first member simulating a first leg, a second member simulating a first arm, a third member simulating a second leg; and a fourth member simulating a second arm; and    a cockpit on the frame configured to receive a humanoid-shaped pilot.    
   
   
       20 . The toy of  claim 19 , wherein the first member and third member each comprise a moveable lower leg coupled to an upper leg through a knee joint.  
   
   
       21 . The toy of  claim 20 , wherein the first member and third member include a wheel disposed in the knee joint.  
   
   
       22 . The toy of  claim 19 , wherein the frame is transformable to a vehicle.
