An orbital spinning toy formed of the central piece, that is formed of two separated parts, a first top piece and a second bottom piece. There is a sleeve between the first top piece and second bottom piece, that rotates. An arm is connected to that rotating sleeve, and has a satellite at its distal end. This forms a toy that allows a user to hold one of the top piece and bottom pieces, and rotate that arm and hence rotate the satellite around the toy.

A transformable toy for use on a playing surface is provided. The transformable toy is formed to includes at least one movable housing element that will move from and expanded to a retracted position when a catch and a latch of the transformable toy are secured and released by an actuator of the transformable toy. The transformable toy is formed to roll about at least one rotation axis thereof, and in some embodiments, is also formed to be driven to spin about a spinning axis thereof. In some embodiments the transformable toy includes separably connectable top and bottom housing portions, and in some embodiments, different bottom housing portions can be exchanged on a particular top housing portion to provide different functionality to the transformable toy. The transformable toy can be driven to spin about the spinning axis by a shaft and flywheel mounted within the transformable toy.
