SKATING DOLL WITH LEGS HAVING ANGLED PIVOT AXES

SKATING DOLL WITH LEGS HAVING ANGLED PIVOT AXIS A skating doll includes a torso upon which are pivotally mounted a pair of legs. A leg swings, with respect to the torso, from a rearward, outward position to a forward inward position so that the other leg is urged forwardly by the momentum. Each leg moves out of synchronism with the other and the head is powered for side to side movement so that the weight is on the forwardly moving leg. The legs include outwardly turned feet supported atop skates oriented to move in a forward direction in response to the inwardly and forwardly directed force applied to the other leg. As a result the doll moves forward in a rolling, sliding, side to side, swaying motion which realistically simulates the movement of a roller or ice skater.
