Disclosed is a toy construction piece being in the form of a half-shell having a bottom portion, a top portion, a bottom wall portion and first and second pair of top wall portions. The bottom wall portion is generally octagonal in shape. The first and second pair of top wall portions extend perpendicularly to each other from the bottom wall portion to the top portion, forming together a generally pyramidal shape and defining four generally dihedral recesses between the four adjacent top wall portions respectively. Each of the dihedral recesses have a bottom in the form of a flat surface. Each of the flat surfaces have rows of outwardly projecting pegs and have an opening also having outwardly projecting pegs. The top portion has a border having two rows of outwardly projecting pegs, the inner row being downwardly recessed from the other. The border defines an opening therein and has an inner surface having outwardly projecting pegs. The bottom of the toy construction piece has openings cooperating with the pegs of a standard block for releasably interlocking the standard block on the bottom of the toy construction piece. The toy construction may be used to construct elaborate structures. The toy construction piece disclosed may also be a part of a kit for assembling more elaborate structures. To that effect, the kit may include standard toy construction blocks, a hinge for interconnecting two identical toy construction pieces, a support member, a leg and a foot, a turret, a cockpit and a cockpit hinge and a triangular piece.
