Cube Tastic August 19, 2005 P. Sanders (London) 11 out of 14 found this review helpful
The old classic is back. I can't believe it was 25 years ago. I have just bought a new one and have it on my desk now, it is still as difficult as it always was, two sides is my max. I would also recommend the other fantastic Rubiks puzzles. These are very educational developing one's brain and intelligence, and puzzle solving ability.
I loved the early 80s when this was big May 26, 2007 Crazy Andy 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
For me, this was one of the best toys ever invented. The concept is very simple, but the combinations run into the zillions, which means that you can't solve it by chance. However, one can have fun working out how to solve it, then once you've done that, impress your mates by applying the same principles over and over again. There isn't that much to remember once you know how. The main problem is in the mechanism and the stickers. These things don't last forever, and can start falling about once they've been played with quite a lot. Also, I have experienced the paint fading on some of the stickers. So it could be much more durable than it is. However, this is definitely one of my all time favourite toys.
Fun for the whole family Just remember to leave the stickers November 9, 2005 Rob (Cambridge, CAMBS United Kingdom) 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
Make sure the kids know not to take the stickers off and you will be fine.I bought this and was surprised to find that it is an anniversary edition, or something like that. I have been looking in all the bloke shops and game shops and other usual suspects with no luck, so was pleased to find it here. Don't even waste your time looking in shops... they are not selling it. Buy it here, get your kids hooked, and hope the stickers stay on this time long enough for you to remember the solution.

Just as I remember June 30, 2008 uberdogz (UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had one of the original cubes as a child and loved it. It is probably up in the loft somewhere but I wanted a new one anyway. This is exactly the same high quality I remember. It was lovely and fluid straight out of the box. I love it just as much now as I did then, now Im a bit smarter so can complete it too LOL. I have no hesitation in recommending this cube, it really is the best one you can buy.
