A hand held toy having a power source with a rotating shaft. A crank is connected with an end of the shaft and extends radially therefrom. An elongated flexible member is connected with the crank at a location radially spaced from its axis. An anchor member is connected with an opposite end of the elongated member and is adapted to control that end of the member. In use, rotation of the shaft causes the elongate member to form controlled substantially uniform convolutions and, selective relative...

A wall walker toy car has a wheel with a sticky peripheral surface that normally extends partially out of a car body. The wheel is supported on a pivotable frame that responds to impact on a part, which would move relatively, to allow the frame to move up under the action of a spring cushion. A second position of the wheel is shown dotted where the wheel is fully retracted into the body so that the sticky surface is less exposed to dust and dirt and therefore has a longer serviceable life in pra...
