This delightful figure is held upright by his wheeled cases, but is propelled by the walking action of his legs. Always erratic, he scurries around, changing direction at complete random. This is probably the most entertaining of the reproductions in the Paya range. Unusual movement, the arms turning at the shoulders to sweep broadly with the wood and straw brush. The movement is so powerful that the vibration moves him if he is not restrained.
