I had one about 20 years ago that had words on it. In addition to getting the sides correct, you had to get the center squares oriented correctly. I used to put it in a checkerboard and then let my then 5 year old solve it. He was a big hit at the VFW christams party that year!

 

I took a hammer to mine and smashed the crap out of it!!!! That is after I tried peeling the stickers and still no luck.............

Of course I liked destructing things!!!

Yet another one I had to put in a drawer to avoid insanity.

Did someone say doughnuts..........

 

I believe its the number one selling puzzle of all time. Debuted in 1980. I got the 25th anniversary edition, only difference between it and a normal cube is that it has shiny silver stickers on one side instead of white.


Ed, I saw that too. 11.13 seconds, wow, that guy has some dexterity for sure.

 

That was the rubix rings. I was toying with one momentarily a couple weeks back.
