Took me 1 hour. Anyone done it quicker?

Where the hell did you get it ? I cannot find one anywhere down here in bloody Cornwall.

From Hamleys. My GF is on their mailing list and they had a few on a first come first serve basis.

It's very different from the cube, you don't have to learn any special moves or memorise anything you just keep spinning it around and cursing till the balls drop in. I enjoyed it but it really needs to be more difficult. 15 minutes to suss out what to do then about 45 to get it done.

Is it as easy as the original when you simple unstick the squares and superglue them back on?. Can it be taken to bits and reasembled?. Im not wasting hours on a puzzle.

Haven't tried breaking it yet but it does have a nice feel to it when tossed up and down in one hand. It also has these little nodule bits that stick out giving it good grip for hefting.
I think Rubik is a genius because it just screams "Throw me at the f**king wall!!!" when you can't do it properly. I'm sure some of the people who smash it up will have to buy the owner a new one, double sales.

Good grief this scares me, I seem to have big memory problems. I started this thread 5 years ago and remember absolutely nothing about it, I even had to Google what the thing was!
