Item Description

Cap is inserted in mouth and then when thrown down, the jaw closes, causing cap to explode. Sliding metal piece has opening at top so that it can be attached to a cord for throwing purposes.

Other has slightly different casting w/longer sliding piece. This was at one time painted red, and 50% of original paint remains. VF overall. Classic toys and Yellow Kid items.
