BUMBLE BALL

A green Bumble Ball on carpet.

The 'Bumble Ball' is a motorized children's toy made by Ertl toys. They were popular in the 1990s and they come in many different colors, including a see-through light up one and a mini version.
The toy is powered by a motor box with batteries mounted eccentrically.
Its power switch consists of a knob that starts the motor when pushed in and stops the motor when pulled out.
Silver Bumble Balls were seen in Michael Jackson's 1995 music video for his hit single "Scream." Despite fan requests, this special Ball was never made available to the public.
As recent as 2006 on Animal Planet, footage of a dog (possibly an Irish Setter) with a Bumble Ball in its mouth has become a running gag where the host Keegan-Michael Key or the announcer would call it a "Jowl Jiggler".
