The present disclosure relates to a toy that provides attachable wheeled base for a mobile device to turn the mobile device into a wheeled toy. In one embodiment, the disclosed toy comprises a four linkages with each linkage connecting a wheel, a first alignment telescoping rod connecting the first linkage and the third linkage, a second alignment telescoping rod connecting the second linkage and the fourth linkage, a first flat bar that connects the first linkage and the fourth linkage, and a second flat bar that connects the second linkage and the third linkage. The flat bars form a scissor structure so that when it expands, the alignment telescoping rods will retract causing distance between first and second linkage and distance between third and fourth linkage to increase, and distance between first and third linkage and distance between second and fourth linkage to decrease.

A toy comprising a top portion having a releasable locking mechanism having flexible clamps and a bottom portion having a post with a head portion releasably engageable by the flexible clamps upon downward movement of the top portion onto the body portion, and a drive system comprising a pillar attached to the top portion having drive teeth and a gear system in the bottom portion, the drive teeth of the pillar operating the gear system in the bottom portion upon movement of the top portion away from the bottom portion by a spring positioned around the pillar such that the drive system operates after the releasable locking mechanism releases the head portion of the post from the flexible clamps.

A walking toy includes a body on which gravity center position adjusting members and paired legs are supported to be able to swing in a forward/backward direction, and a gearbox which has a crank mechanism for forcibly swinging the paired legs alternately forward and backward in a forcible swinging direction and which is mounted in the body. Each of the paired legs has a bottom which is configured to be in contact with a floor surface and which is formed into a curved face curved in the forcible swinging direction. The gearbox is driven by a torsion coil spring and has a lever which rotates a drive gear of a gear train for transmitting rotation of the torsion coil spring to an output shaft for rotating the crank mechanism.

A miniaturized steer roping practice apparatus may comprise a mobile base comprising a frame, an axle rotatably mounted on the frame to rotate about a rotation axis in a forward rotational direction for forward movement and a rearward rotational direction for rearward movement, and at least one drive wheel mounted on the axle. The apparatus may further comprise at least one leg movable with respect to the base, a leg actuation assembly configured to move the at least one leg in conjunction with rotation of the drive wheel, a cover mounted on the mobile base and having an exterior surface with a resemblance to a steer, and a motivating assembly configured to drive the axle in the forward rotational direction using stored energy. The motivating assembly may be configured to store energy by rotation of the axle in the rearward rotational direction.

A toy vehicle launcher assembly for launching a toy vehicle includes a housing and a launcher that is at least partially disposed in the housing. The launcher includes a load mechanism, an actuator mechanism, and a push mechanism. The load mechanism includes a first arm with a handle portion and a second arm with an engagement extension. The handle portion is configured to pivot along a first axis to move the engagement extension and the length of the first arm is longer than the length of the second arm. The actuator mechanism includes a catch. The push mechanism includes a launching member having a first end for engaging with the catch and a second end opposite the first end for engaging a toy vehicle. Rotating the handle portion of the load mechanism towards the push mechanism causes the engagement extension to pull the launching member laterally towards the actuator mechanism.
