Abstract: A toy set having one or more figurines is provided. A first figurine has a motor coupled to a flywheel and a drive shaft to rotate the flywheel and the drive shaft. The drive shaft engages a support surface causing translation of the first figurine on the support surface when the drive shaft is rotated. The flywheel holds the first figurine generally upright on the support surface via gyroscopic force when the flywheel is rotated. The first figurine has a body representing a torso and at least one arm extending from the body, wherein the body and the at least one arm do not rotate with the flywheel. A second figurine is connectable to the first figurine to form a self-balancing assembly at least when the drive shaft engages the support surface and the flywheel is rotated by the motor. Rotation of the drive shaft causes translation of the self-balancing assembly on the support surface.
