The Colorful Cube is a packing puzzle with a
twist. 9 multi-colored "L" shaped pieces have to be put together to form a cube,
each side having a different color.
Not only do you have the six outer
colors on the sides of the assembled cube, but the inside of the pieces are colored as
well - with all six colors plus a surprise 7th one. The seven colors used are: White,
Green, Yellow (see left picture), Pink, Red, Blue (see right) and black on a few inside
pieces. You could almost think of this puzzle as a loose Rubick's Cube.
A plexiglass case and assembly diagram are provided.
