ABSTRACT:
A self-propelled toy vehicle suitable to be given away as a promotional item includes a body shell, having a rear opening or key hole to an internal propulsion mechanism that contains a compression spring. The tip of a separate, key-shaped actuator is insertible into the propulsion mechanism to distort the spring. The actuator also preferably includes a latch member that engages a complimentary capture member in the propulsion mechanism. The latch member is manually disengaged, propelling the body shell forward utilizing the opposing force of the compression spring. The promotional toy is fun and safe to use, and may be manufactured inexpensively.
