Description
The brain teaser to end all brain teaser puzzles, you had a 6 colored cube which you had to reorganize. You could either peel off the stickers or pull it apart with pliers if you gave up.

Nothing is worse than trying to solve a Rubik's cube that someone has scrambled and then peeled and re-arranged a couple stickers on.
But peeling the stickers off or taking apart the cube was the only way to solve this puzzle...for me. :)
i have had a couple rubics cubs lol i tried to solve them but i did the unthinkable yes i admit it i took color stickersoff and replaced them
I love rubiks cubes....
Finally took the thing apart and put back together to cheat.I tried.
I solved this once with my friend telling me the moves. I could never do it on my own, but it can be done!! My roommates and I would mess the thing up like crazy and she could always solve in under 10 minutes! There is a pattern you have to follow, you can find it on the link above.
I'm sure many people had one as well as we did. I never figured it out, and I don't think I ever tried to figure it out.
Rubik's cube was one of the only toys I could take apart (cheat)and put back together and it still worked. Also, it didn't have any lead paint! Great, timeless toy. Rubik's cube is now in the class of chess and checkers!
We still have ours to this day, I think.
My dad (God rest his soul) had this book that gave us the solution to Rubik's Cube and not only did he solve it but I did as well! And we NEVER peeled the stickers off. That takes the fun out of it.

my mom got my dad one of these. yes we peeled all the stickers ruened the whole thing. it hnit the trash soon after that. they used to make them first ones so you could pop the man apart and pop thme back to gether again. a litle girl down the street from me had one and used otdo it all the time.
hello gansters i hate rubix cubes there gay
I still have mine, have never been able to complete it.
Rubix cubes are getting more popular now. I have one and took it apart to complete it. If one of the middle parts break just use super glue to put it back on wait 24 hours and its good as new.
any girl need a bf
I saw a vintage commercial for a Rubik's Cube with Chuck E Cheese's characters on them on YouTube. Check it out!!!
Try solving a Rubik's Revenge. No way I could. The world record for a regular Rubik's Cube is a shade over 7 seconds. The record on the Revenge is over 36 seconds. That's quite a difference.
Have a regular sized one and a tiny keychain one.
I didn`t have one of these the first time round but my boyfriend bought me one and I jumbled it all up and couldn`t do it. I wanted to peel all the stickers off but he wouldn`t let me so I got mad with it and threw it. It is still on the shelf where I shoved it in frustration. You need so much patience to complete the Rubik`s cube.
I had one of the first ones to come out. I solved it once. I took off all the stickers and did it right...lol. The second phase came out with real pretty neon-like colors. Wasn't there a triangle one, too?
Here's the Chuck E Cheese Ruubik's Cube commercial from 1981:
