ABSTRACT:
A wheeled toy vehicle and launcher apparatus. The toy vehicle has: a drive mechanism including at least one drive-wheel, a flywheel and an air turbine operatively coupled to each other, and an air delivery tube having a mouthpiece for the user to blow air into to rotate the turbine. In one embodiment, the drive-wheel, flywheel, and turbine are in a single unit rotatably mounted on a rotatable carrier for causing a generally vertical movement of the drive-wheel toward and away from a supporting surface. The launcher, in a preferred form, permits the user to blow air into the mouthpiece while the drive-wheel is free to rotate. In another form, the launcher may include a biased propelling member.
