| Abstract: |
A liquid squirting simulated creature is comprised of a front section having a body, legs and head, and a rear section which is assembled thereto. The front section is comprised of top and bottom elements defining a cavity therebetween and front and rear apertures, as well as apertures extending along the sides thereof through which a multiplicity of legs extend. The rear section is a resiliently compressible bulbous member providing a chamber therewithin to contain fluid and having a neck portion extending through the aperture in the rear wall of the front section. A tubular conduit is seated in an opening in the neck portion of the rear section and extends to a front aperture in the front section so as to provide the conduit for discharge of fluid from the chamber therethrough. The leg members are comprised of a web on each side interconnecting a multiplicity of legs on that side of the front section, and flexible portions which extend through apertures along the sides of the front section.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
1. A liquid-squirting simulated creature comprising:
- (a) a front member integrally formed of relatively rigid synthetic resin simulating a creature's head portion at its forward end portion and a creature's torso portion at its rearward end portion, said front member torso portion having a sidewall extending rearwardly from said head portion and a rear wall extending transversely inwardly from said sidewall adjacent the rearward end thereof to define a cavity therewithin, said rear wall having an aperture extending therethrough and said head portion having a nozzle aperture;
- (b) a seperately formed rear member integrally formed of resiliently deflectable resin with a body portion simulating the rearward portion of the creature's body and a neck portion, said body portion and neck portion defining a chamber therewithin, said neck portion extending through said aperture of said rear wall of said front member and into said cavity therewithin, said neck cavity extending forwardly of said rear wall towards said head portion with its forward end spaced forwardly of said rear wall, said neck portion having a passage therethrough extending outwardly from said chamber providing the only aperture from said chamber, said rear wall of said front member engaging said neck portion of said rear member adjacent its rearward end;
- (c) a tubular conduit having one end supported in said passage of said neck portion, said neck portion providing integrally formed sealing means at its forward end sealingly engaged with said conduit forwardly of said rear wall of said front member and extending therefrom to said nozzle aperture in said head, said conduit being imperforate along its length and open only at its ends at said nozzle aperture and said neck portion passage, whereby fluid may be drawn into an expelled from said chamber by compression of said rear member.
