I just called. First, the cubes are at Games GALLERY (boy, you guys on the west coast sure have friendly, helpful phone operators. Also store owners: when I called the nearest GamesKeeper that the operator could find, the manager there gave the number for Games Gallery!). $27.95. They got them from Dr Christopher in Germany. And, yes, they have a couple left after taking my phone order. ;) Nichael BTW, Graham (the guy that I talked to at GG --is _everybody_ this friendly out there?) said they had about a half-dozen new Rubik's toys (i.e. "new" = post Rubik's Clock). Including something called "Rubik's 15", which Graham (note how we're on a first-name basis now) described as "like the old 15- puzzle, but *NASTY*!" Does anybody know any of these?
