A figure toy having an expandable torso and a flexible elastic skin covering the torso, the skin interiorly defining a substantially airtight internal cavity. When the torso is moved to its expanded condition, a partial vacuum is produced within the cavity, causing the elastic skin to conform closely to sculptured features resembling muscles disposed on the outer surface of the underlying torso plates, thereby creating an appearance of great strength. When the torso is returned to its unexpanded condition, the figure toy achieves a more normal aspect. Actuator mechanisms are disclosed for selectively expanding the torso by swinging the figure toy's arms downwardly.
