Abstract
A roller skating doll includes a pair of roller skates and an internal drive mechanism permitting the doll to skate in a realistic manner. The skates may be removably secured to a pair of legs movably mounted to a torso portion of the body. A pair of arms are operatively associated with the drive mechanism and similarly move in a realistic and natural cyclical path. The head is designed to pivot in accordance with the weight distribution of the body to maintain balance. The drive mechanism includes a plurality of specifically shaped cams to move the legs in a predetermined cyclical path. Each leg is pivoted generally outwardly at the end of its power stroke by a second cam drive mechanism.
