Star Cube Unboxing and Demo

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

How's it going ?

Everybody ?

This is Beat the Bush today , I'm going to unbox for you .

This star cube puzzle , it's really called a Yoshi Moto cube .

You'll see previously in a video I had this Yoshimoto Cube .

It's actually much more expensive than this one .

This one runs about $68 .

It's from the Moma Store Museum of Modern Art .

It's purely silver and gold .

So it looks kind of neat .

This one is really , really colorful , almost two color to the point where you can't really tell what's going on because it's just a mixture of colors .

But let me open this up and compare it to this one to show you what's inside .

If it runs for about $20 you can check out my affiliate link down below in the video description .

This is a little bit expensive because a Rubik's cube is actually only about $10 and you know , this is all plastic and stuff .

So composition wise in terms of material is about the same .

So it's a little bit more expensive because it's not quite mainstream .

I opened this box already , but you can open it through the side here if you don't want to tear open the package .

Cut the two tape right here , cut the tape along the top here and also the bottom .

Here's the back .

It shows various transformations it's made in the Philippines California creations in Tuscan California .

All right .

And this thing is sort of just keep in place just like most toys on the back here .

If you want to keep the packaging nice and clean , you can cut along the tabs here like this to open them up like I already did .

And then this should just come right off .

Sometimes you might see trade show giveaways where there are eight cubes stuck together like this and there are photos on each side .

And then when you flip them over , you can transform the various photos .

But instead of a complete cube inside is somewhat hollow .

And the way one of these is made is that another one of the same exact shape can fit together nicely like this .

If I take one side and I start flipping it , you'll see one cavity open like this .

And then if I start flipping it some more and then again , it'll turn into a star .

And then if I flip it open , you can see it turns into two halves of the star and then you can just go on and on and on .

The cool part about this is that you can fit one side into the other .

Now , I have two holes here .

So I gotta make that shape to make it look like that .

So it looks like this now and then I can just fit that right in and then it would still become one block and then you can still transform it and you can just partially transform a little bit of it and then you can take it out .

And perhaps if I attach it in a different way , you know , crisscross like this , you can see that I can't really transform it anymore because it's , it's kind of stuck .

So in order to really transform it , you gotta make sure all eight cubes attached to all eight of this side , um it doesn't quite fit right now .

So before I had two holes here , now I had one in the center .

So let me transform it until it looks like that .

Here .

I have a star shape and then the two sides and I put this in and now I have the cube again here .

I actually made a wooden model to resemble one of these sides .

I noticed that this took way too long .

So I kind of gave up after making one .

Anyway , here's the Yoshimoto version .

It's the same thing you can see in this more expensive version , there's a little bit less , less slack here .

It's kind of little bit more perfectly made than this one .

There's a little bit of slop here and it just doesn't fit together quite as nicely as a more expensive one .

It just kind of fits together just a little bit nicer .

There is a little bit of sloth in this one , but it does look great as a display piece .

This one is more like a toy .

But if you play with this $68.01 and it breaks , then you know , it's not gonna be so fun .

So here it is two cubes , I'm gonna transform these out this one this way and then I can put that one in and one cube .

So one more time , you can see this cube , all six sides is solid .

I can transform it out .

And all of a sudden now all the cube sides are a different color .

I transform it again .

Now I'll turn back now I can remove the inside and this thing is solid color on all sides .

And if I transform it into the star , all of a sudden this silver now all of a sudden is gold and then silver again .
