Has anyone else seen these new Cube World thingys? I was at the mall yesterday and went into the Discovery store. I was looking at hand-held travel games and I spotted these little cubes. They are from Radica and come two cubes to a pack. Each cube has a computer animated stick figure person in it. There are four different stick people, (you'd have to purchase two packs to get all four different people). They have names and each person has something in their cube with them, (dog, ball, whip, or stick).
I picked one up and pressed a button, and this tiny figure picked itself up off the floor and proceeded to jump up and down. I was fascinated with it, and at the same time I found it a little creepy. According to the package, the stick figures can do all sorts of things, even visit from one cube to the other if you put the cubes together. If you turn the cube upside down, the person will fall off the 'ceiling' of the cube, then stand back up the right way.
I thought about these cubes all night, researched them on the internet, then went back to the store today and bought three packs of them for Christmas gifts. The fun thing is, you can play with them without taking them out of the box.
I'm going to wait on wrapping them!!
They just came out on the market and I was afraid they'd sell out quickly. When I went back to the store, I noticed that there weren't many left. They really look like a lot of fun to play around with.
When I got them home, I kept turning one around and the little guy kept falling over. When I stopped, he stood up and threw up!!
Anyone else see these cube things? Anyone else buy them?
