Abstract: A reusable, programmable, interactive, and talking pinata for being hit by a stick by a size-insensitive user to dispense bounty and for depicting interchangeable and disposable characters. The pinata includes a character, a first compartment, operating electronics, and a second compartment. The character has a body and depicts the interchangeable and disposable characters, and as such, is interchangeable and disposable. The body has a top part and a bottom part. The bottom part is pivotally attached to the top part so as to pivot relative thereto. The operating electronics has preselected criteria. The second compartment has a bottom lid, and holds the bounty. The bottom lid is affixed to the bottom part so as to pivot therewith. When the pinata is activated by being hit by the stick, the bottom part pivots away from the top part, and in doing so, opens the second compartment and dispenses the bounty.
