Abstract
The invention relates to a running toy having a self-contained motor assembly. The running toy is provided with a pivoting member and a mechanism by which it is actuated in response to the motion of part of the motor assembly to make the running toy somersault when the running toy is traveling along a support surface. The somersault may be rearward or forward. The pivoting member may be manually locked so that the motor will not actuate it.
