Ever figure out a puzzle, like a Rubik's Cube for example, and get bored with it? No, I haven't either. But if you're one of those lucky few who have, the NeoCube may be the ideal puzzle for you. The puzzle toy is made up of 216 magnetic spheres that can be combined in almost any orientation, resulting in what the NeoCube website claims is "a nearly infinite number of solutions".
In addition to just plain creative fun, theneocube.com also claims the puzzle promotes innovation, "dual hemisphere brain stimulation", geometry and math skills, and stress relief. Not bad for a bunch of little metal balls!
