ABSTRACT:
For use in conjunction with a toy of the kind that includes a body having a motor of the flywheel/friction motor type, or of the wind-up spring motor type, a powering-up and releasing device is provided. This device includes an elongated wand which the user temporarily connects to the toy, may use to wind the toy up where the toy has a spring motor, and then uses to release the powered-up toy, by pushing a button, trigger or the like. This actuator is especially useful where the toy is a model race car or other wheeled toy meant to scoot along the floor or ground or along a track.
