A robotic toy has a pedestal, a stand assembly, a transmission device, a shoulder,
an arm assembly and a body casing assembly. The stand assembly is mounted on the
pedestal and has an upper bracket. The transmission device is mounted pivotally
on the upper bracket of the stand assembly and has a hollow body, a motor and a
gear assembly. The shoulder is mounted movably on the hollow body and oscillates
in response to the motor. The arm assembly is attached to the shoulder and has
a forearm pivoting up and down in response to the transmission device. The operating
motor causes the transmission device to rock, the shoulder to oscillate and the
forearm to pivot up and down. Thereby the robotic toy with a decorative musical
instrument looks like a lively person or creature playing a musical instrument.
