Rubik's Illuminate Cube – retro toy becomes light and speaker

Another piece of Japanese madness inspiration, this time taking the Rubik’s Cube and adding light and sound to create the Illuminate Cube.

There’s one big downside here – it’s not a functioning Rubik’s Cube, so you can’t have a twist when you get bored. But you can hook it up to a music source (or your computer) for a miniaturised novelty sound system. And even better, it’s also a lamp that will flash in time to your music – not unlike the dancefloor in the 70s classic, Saturday Night Fever.

The Rubik’s Illuminate Cube is set to go on sale in Japan later this month for 5,250 Yen (around £24). The good news is that you’ll also be able to buy online at Geek Stuff 4U – and they ship worldwide.
