Abstract: A motorized toy capable of linear movement along a horizontal support surface. The toy includes a body, power supply, first and second wheels/gears coupled to the motor each of which is provided with a shaft. Each shaft has an extension angled away from its ends such that when activated, the wheels, being in contact with the horizontal support surface act to move the toy linearly while selective extensions contact the horizontal support surface causing the toy to wobble from side to side thus emulating the action of a lizard running.
