Abstract

A water toy has the shape of an aerial bomb or rocket with generally bulbous, resiliently flexible body and a removable tail member with fins, The water toy includes a resilient shell having a mouth and an internal pointed member facing the mouth. A balloon has a mouth with a lip that fits around and engages the mouth of the shell with the balloon body in the shell. The two mouths are sufficiently large to receive ice cubes. A cover member is fitted over and releasably engages the mouth of the shell sufficiently snugly to seal the mouth of the balloon on the mouth of the shell. The cover member has a recess with a one-way check valve to permit the balloon, which is sealed between the cover member and shell, to be filled with water. The tail member is received in the recess and releasably engages the cover member. Dispersion passageways extend from the inner through the outer surfaces of the shell. When the toy strikes an object with sufficient velocity after being thrown or dropped, the nose and pointed member move inward while the balloon stretches forward towards the nose, due to continuing momentum of its water and ice, until the balloon bursts on the pointed end. The released iced water surges outwardly from the shell through the passageways.
