Abstract
A fluid actuated toy includes a housing with a fluid inlet and outlet and a fluid container pivotally mounted within the housing. A biased pop-up member is slidably mounted within the housing and includes an element for engaging an extension on the fluid container while the pop-up member is in a locked position. The toy further includes a biasing member urging the fluid container to a first position from which the container moves and releases the pop-up member upon accumulation of a predetermined amount of fluid. A platform is pivotally mounted on the housing to be engaged by the pop-up member and a figurine is removably mounted on the platform so as to be ejected upon the impact of the platform member by the pop-up member.
