I remember something like this... it sounds like a variation on the Rubik's Cube. Do you remember if it had like "links" painted on it? I remember something like that... maybe called "links"?

:ernie Are you talking about a "Jacob Ladder" toy? The one's I remember, they were made up of wood and/or plastic and the object was to flip and flop them until they folded down completely. ;) :ssc
