The invention is directed to a toy container having an integrated extruder
for extruding a quantity of a deformable molding compound. The toy may
include a container having a storage portion configured to receive and
store components of a molding compound extrusion set, and an extruder
portion having an extrusion opening and a receiving chamber configured to
receive a quantity of the modeling compound. The toy may further include
a lid moveably attached to the container and moveable between an open
position and a closed position. The lid may have a plunger extending
therefrom, and the receiving chamber may be configured to receive the
plunger when the lid moves from the open position to the closed position.
The plunger may engage a quantity of modeling compound disposed in the
receiving chamber to force the modeling compound through the extruder
opening as the lid moves from the open position to the closed position.
