The addictive desktoy is now in cube form!
BuckyCubes are an amazingly addictive, ultra-portable, stress-relieving, and creative brain toy. The logical extension of the BuckyBall phenomenon, BuckyCubes are a set of 125 or 216 small magnetic cubes.
With BuckyCubes, you can challenge yourself to invent crazy 3D structures as well as intricate 2D designs. Or zone out a bit and simply fiddle; snapping, folding, and breaking long strands of BuckyCubes can be quite relaxing. They're also fantastic for displaying photos or papers due to their small size and hefty magnetism.
However you choose to use BuckyCubes, you're going to enjoy it!
Check out a quick demo of BuckyCubes in action
The short demo video below shows off a small percentage of the types of things you can do with BuckyCubes. Hopefully this gets your imagination going!
Superstrong magnets
Each BuckyCube is pretty dang strong for its size. In the photo below, four BuckyCubes were used to suspend a nearly 2-pound hammer.
Please note that we are holding a total of 16 BuckyCubes, but only four are making contact with the hammer. The rest were needed for grip.
Create cool structures, have a bit of fun
BuckyCubes are all about creating and designing.
For many projects, you'll start with a long strand of cubes and then snap and fold them to build mini-structures such as 3x3x3 cubes. You then use these building blocks to create larger and more complicated objects.

Set includes 125 or 216 rare earth magnets
Each set of BuckyCubes includes 125 (Nickel only) or 216 (Nickel, Black, and Gold) magnetic cubes. Each side of the cube is about 1/8" long.
Hang family photos, too!
Perhaps you have a healthy (no restraining order yet) obsession with Hans Gretel. Flaunt it by using BuckyCube magnets to hang his photos on your fridge or filing cabinet! "Ooh yah, that's more like it, keep filing."
For less outrageous endeavors, you can also use a single BuckyCube to comfortably hang about 8 pieces of paper to a magnetic surface.
BuckyCubing on-the-go with the included carrying case
BuckyCubes (just like its spherical counterparts) come with a small plastic carrying case perfect for the car, train, subway, plane, submarine, boat, or blimp.
