Abstract
A moving toy has a plurality of rotating elements located along opposite sides of its body. A motor is connected to these elements via a gear train so as to rotate the elements on the body. A plurality of sets of movable members each are capable of independently being connected to either the rotating elements or to both the rotating elements and the body. Each of the sets of the movable members when connected to the rotating elements are capable of moving the body in a unique manner which differs from the method of movement of any of the other of the sets of the members. The members can include eccentric rolling members, single walking members or compound walking members.
