I'll probably take a mold of it and try some casting for practice. I'm probably not going to sell it, ever. Well, unless I'm flat broke and need to survive off my collections.

According to my friend who is tasked with retrieving my mail, the cube arrived yesterday. Just a few more days now.

Regarding selling it, that would be a sin before the eyes of the TT fleet Wink

It has a permanent place in my heart and on my shelf.

I'll keep it safe, don't worry.

First congrats again!

Now, are you sure you have examined the cube thoroughly to make sure there are no hints or other such ARGish stuff in/around/on/outside/packaging etc?

Just checking.

Perhaps... but give it one more day.

Finally got my cube in! #2 of 5! Woohoo!

Pics at the following:

Tell me if you can't access the album.

Also, I took pictures of the boxes, as they had handwriting on them, as well as the crumbled paper. One of the pieces of paper is just a generic green pattern, while the other is an ad for the Alameda County Medical Center (which is in Northern California across the bay from San Francisco). Anyone think it's relevant. The ad had a copyright date on 2007 if that means anything. I hit both papers with blacklight as well just for the hell of it.

Link works for me. I got the same Alameda paper. Maybe I'll have a look at it... I don't think we'll find anything though.

Yeah, I didn't scan mine, but I posted the transcript in the first post. That's who emailed us too. "DF"

Finally home and able to investigate my cube. I received 3 of 5. A big thanks to everyone involved with this cool display piece.

I also had the exact same crumpled papers. Also, handwritten on one of the boxes is 3050 but on another box it is printed by a machine. However, I instantly thought of Josh and his rare fish calendars.

On the two mini boxes mine says, CV2 and the #3 (Those seem to be inventory numbers for each model).

As Punxtr mentioned earlier, it does have some imperfections but it still feels like a high quality product.

EDIT: Fixed link
