ABSTRACT:
A toy simulated explodable shack is disclosed that is actuated by a toy car running through the doors thereof. The shack includes a base, and a pair of shack frame members including side walls and doors pivotally mounted on the base for pivotal movement between a closed position, in which the shack frame members come together to form a shack, and an open position in which the shack frame members separate and rest on the side walls thereof. A floor member is mounted on the base onto which a movable hatch member is mounted. A first tensioning spring is provided for tensioning the hatch member to exert a predetermined force. A latch is provided that includes a rear panel on the floor member for releasably holding the hatch member in its tensioned condition. A propelled car strikes and opens the doors, causing the shack frame members to be slammed to their open position. Substantially simultaneously, the car strikes the rear panel releasing the latch, causing the hatch member to catapult the car out of the shack. These actions simulate an exploding shack.
