Hi all,
I stumbled onto this one today: a Rubick cube kind of puzzle called Meteor Madness designed by Oskar van Deventer.
Have a look here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KE8L6uvCJQE
More of the same in different formats (including the largest of all 17x17x17 cubes): _http://www.shapeways.com/shops/oskarpuzzles?sg13603[rows]=10#sg13603
His personal website is over here: _http://oskarvandeventer.nl/
Although a fellow countryman, I had never heard of him so far and I'm totally flabbergasted by his imagination, skills and patience. Have fun!
