Hidden figures
Star Cube is a unique plaything that will leave your coworkers baffled and your fingers entertained. The shapeshifting shell opens like an oyster, revealing a multicolored replica of itself nested inside.
With a little bit of clever folding, you can reverse the nesting so that the multicolored cube is on the outside. You’ll have fun partially unfolding the two layers of cubes to create new shapes or separating them to have two different cubes to play with. Star Cube is all about exploring the myriad of metamorphoses at your fingertips.
Double the cube
Like the trojan horse of antiquity or a Thanksgiving turducken, Star Cube has surprises hidden within. The transforming toy is comprised of two connected pieces, each of which can become a 2x2 cube, a 4x2 rectangle, and a 12-point star.
The pieces effortlessly morph between the different configurations so you can absentmindedly play with them while your mind wanders.
When two become one.
Full of shapes
Star Cube is stuffed full of more than enough shapes to keep you busy. You can unfold Star Cube to reveal a new cube with six additional colors, transform the new cube into a rectangle, separate the rectangle into two rectangles, convert each rectangle into a star, and put it all back together again.
