Does anyone remember this puzzle toy?

[Sabu]

Hi y'all,

I'm a new visitor to these forums. Forgive me for jumping right in with a request, but I'm trying to locate a puzzle game from my youth in the 1980's/early 90's, and this seemed like the perfect place to find some folks who may have had one as well.

To the best of my recollection, this was a plastic puzzle, with two intersecting and rotating circles. The goal was to match up the colors of different slices. The base was white plastic, and the pieces were held in place by clear plastic hexagons. I tried to mock up a picture from memory:

If you remember ever owning this, or have any information about a manufacturer, the puzzle's name (or if you have one just taking up space that you don't use anymore!), I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for your time. Cheers!

- Eric

Thanks for the super-quick response, JyH!

First, let me apologize for not finding the one-answer question thread. As a user of many other forums, I know it can be frustrating when new users don't do an adequate search or when they post in the wrong areas. I didn't catch that thread on my initial browsing.

As for the Hungarian Rings, that's really close. This particular toy, however, was made of colored panels resulting in almond-shaped color wedges instead of the beads that the Hungarian Rings use.

My search continues.
