1. A reconfigurable toy assembly having a vehicle configuration in a first position and a robotic humanoid configuration in a second position, comprising:
- a first element configured to simulate the front portion of a vehicle in a first position and a robotic humanoid trunk in a second position;
a second element swingably mounted on the upper portion of said first element, said second element being configured to simulate a robotic humanoid head in a second position and received in said first element in a first position;
a pair of third elements pivotally connected to two sides of said first element, said third elements being configured to simulate a lower portion and front wheel portion of a vehicle in a first position and a pair of robotic humanoid arms in a second position;
a pair of fourth elements pivotally connected to the lower portion of said first element, said fourth elements being configured to simulate a pair of robotic humanoid legs in a second position and received in said first element in a first position; and
a pair of fifth elements each pivotally connected to the lower portion of the corresponding fourth element.

Abstract
A reconfigurable toy assembly is disclosed which is adapted to be reversibly transformed to provide two kinds of configurations entirely different from each other between a first position and a second position by only swinging operation. Typically, the reconfigurable toy assembly is constructed in such a manner to provide a vehicle form by folding the toy assembly and a robotic humanoid form by unfolding.

4. A reconfigurable toy assembly comprising:
-
a frame member; means mounted on the assembly for translating the toy assembly across a support surface, and a housing member providing in a first position a simulated vehicle body configuration, movably connected to the frame member, the housing member is divided into component parts that are movably interconnected, reconfiguration of the housing member component parts from the vehicle body configuration of the first position provides a second position simulating a robotic humanoid, at least a first component housing part can be bifuracated to simulate feet of a robotic humanoid, at least a second component housing part can be repositioned to simulate the chest of a robotic humanoid and a third component housing part supports a simulated humanoid robot head member, the first component housing part when configured in the second position is moved relative to the frame member and separated to simulate the robotic humanoid feet, the second component housing part is moved relative to the frame member above the first component housing part to form a chest and the third component housing part is positioned above the second component housing part to provide the head. - View Dependent Claims (2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
