description A remote controlled talking amusement or entertainment device of an amusing and simple construction includes a pair of fanciful heads mounted on a rigid base. Disposed within the base are an electromechanical transducer or audio speaker for transmitting audible output signals and a pair of fluid actuated pistons or diaphragms for imparting motion to a movable portion of one or both of the fanciful heads to simulate human speech or other sound patterns or facial expressions. The base is functionally interconnected with a remotely disposed control unit that includes a transducer or microphone for receiving audible input signals for transmission by the speaker in the remotely disposed base and also includes a pair of fluid pumps or air bellows for respectively actuating the remotely disposed pistons or diaphragms in the base to thereby impart motion to the movable portions of the fanciful heads either in synchronism or not in synchronism with the audible output signal transmitted by the speaker in the base. Preferably, an amplifier is connected between the microphone and the speaker and may be physically located in either the base or in the control unit.
