Logo Usage
To use a company's logo you must do certain things to ensure you are using it properly. These things include proper size, certain placement, accessibility, and good quality. The logo should not be too small, so that details of the logo can still be seen. All placement and accessibility should ensure the logo is clearly visible. The logo must be correct in every aspect. Every step taken when putting a logo on an object must be correct so the owners are not offended or revoke their usage permission.

Safety Regulations
For McDonalds, toy safety is at the top of their list when considering toys to go in their happy meals. At the top of the possible hazard list would be the choking hazard. Besides that, all other hazards are also inspected very closely.

Construct and Test Prototype
To test our product I asked both my parents for their opinion. First I asked my dad and he said it looks great. He did have some concerns with small parts until I told him they would attach. He also thought the toy would be more interesting if was more interactive, such as attaching a rubber band launch. Later I asked my mom and she thought it looked good. She was surprised with how the product looked. She thought the minion would go inside the rocket horizontally.
Evaluate Solution
a. I thought our product turned out well. Some changes I thought would improve the product would making the fins on the rocket symmetrical to the hole for the minion.
b. The whole project was very fun, as it allowed us to use our imagination. DeVon and I worked well together, but there was some lack of communication. I used many of the inventor skills I learned in the past and I even learned some skills. I learned how to change the material of individual faces in a whole part.
