Nine-Colour Cube other, there is no parity constraint; all of the above positions are attainable. The full number is therefore: Out of the 268 240 896 000 possible configurations, there are 80 that represent a solved puzzle. These solutions fall into three categories: Nine-Colour Cube The Nine-Colour Cube ("see below" for other names) is a cubic twisty puzzle. It was invented in 2005 by Milan Vodicka and mass-produced by Meffert's seven years later. Mechanically, the puzzle is identical to the Rubik's Cube; however, unlike the Rubik's Cube, which only has 6 different colours, the Nine-Colour Cube has 9 colours, with the individual
Yoshimoto Cube cube can be dissected and reassembled into two stellated rhombic dodecahedra, each of which comprise half the volume of the original cube, making it a kind of three-dimensional dissection puzzle. Yoshimoto Cube The Yoshimoto Cube is a polyhedral mechanical puzzle toy invented in 1971 by , who discovered that two stellated rhombic dodecahedra could be pieced together into a cube when he was finding different ways he could split a cube equally in half. Yoshimoto first introduced his cube in 1972 at a solo exhibition entitled "From Cube to Space," and later developed three commercial versions. In 1982, Yoshimoto Cube
