The Magic the Gathering Rubik’s Cube: Hold it long enough and your virginity will grow back.
Sometimes you have to get a little geeky.
Introducing the “Magic The Gathering Rubik’s Cube” (If you found a way to add Klingons to this thing it would be bigger than LOTR 4).
The love child of two long standing geek traditions, Magic the gathering and puzzles that make people with lives feel stupid (not me… of course), the cube features a different “mana” symbol on five of its six different sides.
We were a little disappointed with the yellow side of the cube, instead of having a yellow symbol (possibly colorless mana… because y’know it’s yellow). it has the Magic the Gathering logo in small print on each square (Not a big complaint for such an epic piece of swag), but because Wizards of the Coast is a multi-million dollar company famous for its art, we think they could have done something a little more creative, like having a badass golden minotaur on that side.
This thing is the perfect gift for the gamer in your life. He or She (hahahaha) can fiddle with it while they’re waiting for their they’re Elf Geomancer to gain exp.
We picked up ours at Big Brother Comics in Sacramento, CA and it took us literally hours to solve. Fortunately, we video taped it so you to can learn the secrets to solving the second strangest toy spawned from the 80’s too.
We’re giving the Magic the Gathering Rubik’s cube the finger three times for it’s 90’s nerd aesthetic and it’s 80’s geek awesomeness.

Wait, there were only 5 colors in Magic, but 6 sides to the cube. What’s the sixth?

No one has actually ever seen the sixth side, but a garbled message from the last person who tried stated “that it’s all full of stars”.
