Abstract
An action toy for children of tender years useful on land and water comprises a body having an outer surface shaped to resemble a human form in a generally horizontal position as in riding the surf. The body includes a pair of forwardly extending spaced apart arms and a pair of rearwardly extending spaced apart legs. A pair of relatively large wheels formed of flotation material such as resilient foam are mounted for rotation on a pair of spaced apart transverse axes extending between opposite outer end portions of the arms and legs respectively, and a power source such as a rubber band is provided for rotatively driving at least one of the wheels to propel the toy across a supporting surface or across the water.
