[FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]Pyraminx Crystal
[/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]
[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]Only limited quantity left[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif][FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif] Presently Out of Stock[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]Now to the Pyraminx Crystal which was originally only planned to be produced in black which is our standard puzzle body color. Then Aleh Hladzilin who made the prototype of the Pyraminx Crystal for us asked if as compensation we could make for him an exclusive batch of 25 white body Pyraminx Crystals, this we agreed to do. However when it came to actually producing them, our injection molding department made an substantial over run of a few hundred part sets as it is apparently not possible to mold just 25 sets. It only takes 10 or so seconds for each injection shot of many pieces on our high speed injection molding machines and half a day to set up and adjust the molds. Rather then wasting all of these extra white parts, we then as an after thought decided to assemble some of them and put them on our website yesterday. To our surprise they sold out very quickly. If anyone else is still interest in the white body Crystal please go and click on the "remind when available" in the New Products category If there is sufficient interest after say a week or so in more white Pyraminx Crystals, we can have more assembled, there are still more surplus components left in the factory.

[FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]I am now thinking to produce this nice puzzle by Katsuhiko Okamoto san, after the Golden cube, but before I do, I like as is my practice, ask you all for your opinion do you like this puzzle? If you would like to buy one of these unique puzzles for US$18.00, tick the box in "Reserve Limited Puzzle Edition"; I am also trying to find the perfect name for it, such as the present name "Pyracue", "PyraSkewb" or PyraSkewb back to Square-1" etc. any better name suggestions?
