A toy vehicle launcher and a toy vehicle for use therewith is disclosed. The toy vehicle launcher includes first and second spaced, generally parallel sidewalls each having an inner surface and an outer surface. A first and a second spiral retainer member are attached to the inner surfaces of the first and second sidewalls respectively. The second spiral member is opposed to the first spiral retainer member, and is generally parallel thereto throughout its length. Each of the spiral retainer members has a first end near the center of the sidewalls of the toy vehicle launcher and a second end near the periphery of the toy vehicle launcher. One of the sidewalls has an aperture therein near its center through which the toy vehicle to be launched can be placed into contact with the first and second spiral retainer members near their first ends. The toy vehicle launcher also includes a second aperture adjacent the second ends of the spiral retainer members. A drive member drives the toy vehicle along the first and second spiral retainer members from the first ends towards the second ends thereof. The toy vehicle is driven along the spiral retainer members and is ejected from the vehicle launcher through the second aperture at the second ends of the spiral retainer members.
