Abstract
A toy figurine comprising a multi-part housing. The toy figurine includes a circuit board provided in the multi-part housing. The circuit board is in electrical communication with an electrical switch for activating a functionality of the circuit board. The toy figurine includes an elongate pin provided in an interior of the multi-part housing and a push button provided on an exterior of the multi-part housing and adjacent to the elongate pin. Upon actuation of the push button by a user, the push button drives the elongate pin to contact the electrical switch.
