It was a couple of years ago I think I said how it was a novelty actually going on a set of teacups. Since then it's become a bit of a habit, and have even noticed some differences between different sets. This is one of the more basic sets. It's not even on a big turntable, instead each cup is on an arm sticking out from the centre. Sadly the arms don't go up or down or anything, just round in a big circle.

Like other teacups you can spin the cups around yourself in a circle as you go round. You can get a fair amount of speed in the spin if you turn the cups fast enough. The novelty of the ride is fun for a while, but it soon wares off. Probably before the end of your first go. This version of the teacups is definitely more suited to the kiddie, rather than the family market.
