The Cube! Pictures inside! UPS guy runs to my door because it's raining, and practically ding dong door ditches me back to his van!
Top recruits,
You now know what we're looking for. Use these models for further training. Handle with care (this is not a toy, don't give it to children.) If they activate, you know what to do.
Best regards,
Donald Frostky

I played expcnv.dat next to it--nothing happened. Of course, that was supposed to keep the cubes stable, I think. So, if it does activate, I can calm them down with it

It's about a pound or two. I'm not sure what it's made of, but it has a cast finish. It's not metal. Also, I should mention, it came disassembled. I had to assemble the case myself.

Aw man! I'm stoked! I haven't gotten mine yet!
Part of my crazy mind thinks that it will be remotely activated once we all get 'em in.

Training Subject Also nothing yet.
But i think i'll have to wait a few days more, cause it's a hard and long way for packages to germany.
Maybe the duty opened and activated it. Guess they don't know what to do.

Grats Punxtr! I'm still on vacation in Jersey so I have nothing new to add to the cube club.
Did your number tag say 1 of 5 or was it individually numbered (like #3 of 5)?
Also, has anyone heard where these are coming from? Are they props or replicas built specifically for the cube club?

They seem made for us. I don't think they came from the set at all. It's cast material so the finish looks like sand, and the quality is low. There are surface defects. Not that it really matters, I'm taken to manufacturing techniques and it's not like the cube is going to be subjected to static or fatigue loads...
I got 5 out of 5. The number seems random, and not based on score, since I determined my score was greater than at least one of you

I wouldnt worry too much about score punxtr. They most likely just told an intern to package the cubes.
