ABSTRACT:
A toy vehicle has a pair of gripping tongs spring-biased open and loosely housed in a recess preferably in the underside of a housing for the toy vehicle. A pair of spaced-apart cam surfaces are located in the recess for engaging the tong arms on opposite sides of their pivot, and a manually operable lever engages and moves the pivot deeper into the recess so the cam surfaces pivot the free ends of the tong arms together against the spring bias. The cam surfaces are preferably closer to the pivot than to the free ends of the tong arms, and the tong arms preferably have shoulders slidably engaging the cam surfaces during opening and closing movements.
