Swimways specialise in water/pool toys mainly. They have an inventor idea submission section on their web site.
I have recently submitted a few ideas to them so I will keep you all posted if anything comes of them.
Cheers,
Inventoy

CAn anybody tell me if Swimways is a reputable company. their form for submission seems pretty inclusive , wanting all drawings and full description of my new invention. I thought it was more customary to give an overall view of a proposed invention- then if interested to follow up with some NDA'a or other form of understanding before spilling all the beans.
Thanks: Eric

Hi Eric, Swimways are listed on quite a few inventor friendly sites. I myself have submitted ideas that were not a fit for them and an inventing colleague and veteran Roger Brown has recommended them. They are also listed on the Toy Industry America (TIA) and inventor digest inventor friendly list. Probably best to give them a ring though I am sure they would sign an NDA before you send more details.
Cheers Inventoy

HI administrator Thanks for the advice. I wanted to avoid calling as they said do not call. I will call now. If they are OK I'll send the idea. Strange that they want detailed drawings and description etc before they will sign anything. Seems heavy handed. As a matter of fact, they want me to sign their form when I submit or they will not look at the submission.
Regards: Eric

Hey Adm. I did finally get a call from Swimways... The gal in charge was traveling and could not return my message. I thought they were ignoring calls.
No need to contact me as I did find the appropriate contact person.
Regards: eric Curry

The new toys are designed based on the new game characters and they are super great.
