Claims18
A toy packaging and display device comprising:
- a. a base unit comprising a solid base unit platform located at the top of said base unit;
- b. a display case capable of removably mating with said base unit, thereby forming a display unit when so mated;
- c. an external sleeve diametrically larger than the display case;
- wherein the external sleeve is capable of removably mating with said base unit;
- wherein a first cavity is defined between said external sleeve and said base unit when they are connected;
- wherein the first cavity houses at least a portion of the display unit, and wherein the display unit defines a second internal cavity which is encapsulated by said first cavity and is capable of housing a toy or prize;
- wherein the external sleeve comprises an external wall with at least two openings opposite each other, wherein the base unit removably connects to the external sleeve at one of the said at least one opening;
- and
- wherein a top is connected to the external sleeve on the side opposite the base unit thereby forming an external packaging;
- and
- wherein gaps are formed between the internal side of the external sleeve and display case, and wherein the toy packaging and display device further comprises at least one spacer to fill at least a portion of a gap between the sleeve and display case.
A toy packaging and display device comprising:
- a. a base unit, wherein the base unit comprises an external portion and an ascending portion, wherein the external portion is diametrically larger than the ascending portion;
- b. a display case comprising an at least partially transparent wall, wherein said display case mates with said base unit at a base unit receptor forming a display case unit when mated;
- c. an external sleeve, wherein the external sleeve comprises an external sleeve wall and a top, wherein said external sleeve is capable of mating with said base unit thereby forming an external package, wherein a first cavity is defined between said external sleeve and said base unit to house at least a portion of said display unit so that said first cavity encapsulates a second cavity and wherein said second cavity is defined by said display unit such that a toy or prize is capable of being housed in said second cavity and wherein gaps are formed between the internal side of the external sleeve and display case;
- d. at least one securing tray, wherein each said at least one securing tray is in contact with said toy or prize and either the base unit, the display case, or both the base unit and the display case;
- and
- e. at least one spacer to fill at least a portion of said gaps between the sleeve and display case.
