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.


5 out of 5 stars I loved the early 80s when this was big   May 26, 2007

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.



5 out of 5 stars Fun for the whole family Just remember to leave the stickers   November 9, 2005

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.

5 out of 5 stars Classic, innocent, 80s fun!   June 7, 2007

The Rubiks Cube is a living piece of toy history. Not only is it a classic puzzle, it has become a style icon that represents the 80s.

A simple cube with different colours on each of it's 6 sides. What you do is mix up the colours by turning the various moving sides, and then try to get the colours back to their original side. Sounds simple enough, anybody can do one side or two, but then as you try to do more one little move erases your work on another side! This is the simple beauty of the cube. If you can do the whole thing it might reveal if you are a genius. Its fun and its frustrating that at times makes me want to throw it at the wall! Yet there is a little bit of magic about it that keeps me trying to unravel its mysteries.
