This really is a Tyco Pterodactal. One presses a button on its back and the wings manually flap. Found this courtesy of RP Model Railroads, who sent me the eBay link. HAD to have it. The guy in the beak is Microbusss, who got picked off while shoveling snow off the top of Mt. Scottsbluff.
I can only guess it was somehow sold in conjunction with the truly spectacular Tyco Jurassic Park Set.

This Hot Wheels video recorder is really cool. I have practiced making several clips today. Lovin' this thing!! It takes some nice video! Very impressive and easy to use and seems like I bought this one fairly reasonable on ebay a couple of years ago... Edited by - walt on May 20 2019 6:55:05 PM

Dittos to the Busss. Someone mentioned it some years back on this forum, and I've shot a lot of video with it. It can get into tight places and be mounted onto a flat car for engineer's point-of-view. Looking forward to more of your experiments, Walt, it's a lot of fun seeing what can be done. Eventually I am going to try to fit it into a passenger coach to get that perspective, as well.
I gather there are a number of mini cams available on the market, but this is cheap, easy to learn, easy to use.
