ABSTRACT:
A toy has a body which is divided into a main section and a supplemental section. The supplemental section is movably mounted on the main section between a first and second position. A motor is located within the main section and connected to the motor are a set of drive wheels. The drive wheels extend out of the bottom of the main section and are positioned such that one of the drive wheels is on one side of the longitudinal center line of the main section and the other of the drive wheels is on the other side of the longitudinal center of the main section and both of the drive wheels are located on one side of the transverse center line of the main section. A guide wheel is located on the main section and is positioned such that at least a portion of the guide wheel extends below the main section and is located on one side of the longitudinal center line of the main section and is on the opposite side of the transverse center line from that of the driving wheels. When the supplemental section is in its first position a greater portion of its weight is supported by the guide wheel than when the supplemental section is in its second position. As the guide wheels propel the toy over a surface in response to the motor, the direction of travel of the toy when the supplemental section is in the first position is different from the direction of travel of the toy when the supplemental section is in the second position.
