ABSTRACT:
A toy moves downwardly along an incline under the action of gravity in a manner simulating a walking, shuffling, swinging or like motion. The toy is of pendular configuration, having a portion arranged to make rocking contact with a suitably disposed grade, rail or the like affording the incline, and having at least one ball, roller, or wheel which projects displaceably from that portion in such a way that, upon displacement of the or each ball, roller, or wheel, relative thereto, the position of the center of gravity of the whole toy, with respect to the incline, will be altered. The toy may be in the form of a skier and may have sufficient momentum to push obstructions from its path, open gates, etc, or to pick up an object in transit, by means of hooks, magnets, and the like.
