ABSTRACT:
The toy action figures includes upper and lower hollow torso portions. An actuating mechanism is contained in the upper torso and acts through a helical gear mechanism to rotate the lower torso portion and the legs attached thereto about a longitudinal axis when one of the figure's arms is swung from a diverging relation toward one side of the figure. A spring is used to return the actuating mechanism and the limbs associated therewith back to their normal or unactuated positions. Another spring releases or disconnects the lower torso portion from the actuating mechanism should the child attempt to twist the two torso portions relative to each other by using too much force.
