A walking toy (1) in which if a torso (10) is moved forward walking motion is performed has the torso (10), two legs (20). The walking toy (1) includes a crank member (60) having a pair of crank eccentric shafts (62). Each of the legs (20) has a motion member (50) giving rotational force to the crank member (60) when the torso (10) moves forward. Each of the motion members (50) has an eccentric shaft connecting part (53) pivotably connected to the corresponding crank eccentric shaft (62), a torso cooperation part (52), and an action part (51)on which force received from the walking surface act. Projections (56) are formed at the torso cooperation part (52), while grooves (17) are formed at the torso (10). If the action part (51) of the one leg (20) moves rearward, the motion member (50) moves to thereby impart rotational force to the crank member (60) and, the other leg (20) is moved forward due to rotation of the crank member (60), and then contacts the walking surface.
