wherein the strap is substantially L-shaped and includes a small segment extending laterally relative to the main segment, wherein the small segment is seated within a strap recess on the toggle body, wherein the small segment and the strap recess are collectively configured such that the small segment is engageable with the strap recess by sliding in a direction along the axis of the toggle body;

wherein the strap recess includes a portion with a retaining profile in axial end view and the small segment includes a mating retaining profile that slides into the retaining profile along the axis of the toggle body;

wherein a bottom of the strap recess includes an opening, wherein a bottom of the small segment of the strap includes a projection, wherein the projection snaps into the opening to prevent the small segment from sliding axially out of the strap recess.

2. The anchor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the main segment of the strap and the locking sleeve include a cooperating ratchet feature formed by part spherical recesses along the main segment and a part spherical projection on the locking sleeve that fits within the part spherical recesses.

3. The anchor assembly of claim 2 , wherein a side of each part spherical recess facing toward the toggle body is formed by a substantially planar step, wherein the projection includes a substantially planar step surface facing away from the toggle body, and wherein the projection is formed on a flex tab of the locking sleeve.

4. The anchor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the toggle body includes a wall boring end formed by a positioning tip and a set of blade projections disposed about the positioning tip.

5. The anchor assembly of claim 4 , wherein at least one blade projection includes a forward cutting edge and a side cutting edge.

6. The anchor assembly of claim 5 , wherein at least one pocket is formed between the positioning tip and at least one of the blade projections for capture of wall debris during wall boring.

7. The anchor assembly of claim 4 , wherein the positioning tip is formed by a plurality of stepped segments that are radially spaced apart from each other and that angle toward and meet each other when moving toward a free end of the positioning tip.

8. The anchor assembly of claim 4 , wherein the positioning tip is formed by a plurality of curved segments that are radially spaced apart from each other and that curve to meet each other toward a free end of the positioning tip, and a through slot is formed in the positioning tip rearward of the free end.

9. The anchor assembly of claim 8 , wherein at least one blade projection aligns with the slot.

10. An anchor assembly for wall installation, comprising:

a toggle body that is elongated along an axis;

a strap connected to and extending from the toggle body, wherein the strap includes a main segment that extends in a first direction away from the axis of the toggle body when the strap and toggle body are in an unstressed state, and the main segment is bendable down toward the toggle body such that the main segment extends in a second direction, where the second direction runs more closely to parallel with the axis than does the first direction;

a locking sleeve mounted for movement along the strap toward the toggle body; wherein the strap is substantially L-shaped and includes a small segment extending laterally relative to the main segment, wherein the small segment is seated within a strap recess on the toggle body;

wherein the strap recess includes a portion with a retaining profile in axial end view and the small segment includes a mating retaining profile that slides into the retaining profile;

wherein the retaining profile is a dovetail profile and the mating retaining profile is a mating dovetail profile.

11. An anchor assembly for wall installation, comprising:

a toggle body that is elongated along an axis;

a strap connected to and extending from the toggle body, wherein the strap includes a main segment that extends in a first direction away from the axis of the toggle body when the strap and toggle body are in an unstressed state, and the main segment is bendable down toward the toggle body such that the main segment extends in a second direction, where the second direction runs more closely to parallel with the axis than does the first direction;

a locking sleeve mounted for movement along the strap toward the toggle body; wherein the strap is substantially L-shaped and includes a small segment extending laterally relative to the main segment, wherein the small segment is seated within a strap recess on the toggle body, wherein the small segment and the strap recess are collectively configured such that the small segment is engageable with the strap recess by sliding in a direction along the axis of the toggle body;

wherein the toggle body includes a substantially flat side at which the strap recess is formed, with a thumb recess formed as a depression in a surface of the flat side, and an arcuate side with a finger recess formed therein, where the finger recess and the thumb recess are aligned along the axis of the toggle body.

12. The anchor assembly of claim 11 , wherein the substantially flat side includes a set of spike projections thereon for stabilizing the toggle body against a wall surface.

13. An anchor assembly for wall installation, comprising:

a toggle body that is elongated along an axis;

a strap connected to and extending from the toggle body, wherein the strap includes a main segment that is movable between a first orientation extending away from the axis of the toggle body and a second orientation running alongside the toggle body;

a locking sleeve mounted for movement along the strap toward the toggle body;

wherein the main segment of the strap and the locking sleeve include a cooperating ratchet feature formed by part spherical recesses along the main segment and a part spherical projection on the locking sleeve that fits within the part spherical recesses.

14. The anchor assembly of claim 13 , wherein a side of each part spherical recess facing toward the toggle body is formed by a substantially planar step, wherein the projection includes a substantially planar step surface facing away from the toggle body, and wherein the projection is formed on a flex tab of the locking sleeve.

15. An anchor assembly for wall installation, comprising:

a toggle body that is elongated along an axis;

a strap connected to and extending from the toggle body, wherein the strap includes a main segment that is movable between a first orientation extending away from the axis of the toggle body and a second orientation running alongside the toggle body;

a locking sleeve mounted for movement along the strap toward the toggle body;

wherein the toggle body includes a substantially flat side with a thumb recess formed therein, the thumb recess formed by a depression in a surface of the substantially flat side, and an arcuate side with a finger recess formed therein, where the finger recess and the thumb recess are aligned along the axis of the toggle body, wherein the finger recess extends in a direction across the axis of the toggle body.

16. The anchor assembly of claim 15 , wherein the substantially flat side includes a set of spike projections thereon for stabilizing the toggle body against a wall surface.

17. The anchor assembly of claim 15 , wherein the finger recess is formed as a depression in a surface forming the arcuate side.
