yeah the originals were hand made by a guy called drewseph...hes quite famous in the puzzle world for making these things by hand..each one would take ages to build..and they would fetch at least 2500 quid on ebay..now that they are mass produced by mf8 and cube 4u the price is within the reach of us mortals...hence the new addition as ive been waiting ages for the price to come down..mine cost 58 quid inc postage..
