Takara Walkiebits Robot Turtles:

These tiny turtle ‘Walkiebits’ from Takara aren’t much more evolved than the wind-up walking toys Japan loves so well. They do have one new trick, though: you can tap a rhythm out on their shell—up to 15 raps—and the turtles will walk to that beat. Okay, not that impressive, but the 5 centimeter robots are only $13 (and might even show up in the US, as Takara is pretty good about exporting here).
