I've also been looking for a "Rubik's >Magic Create the Cube." It was originally described as a 'Level 2' >Rubik's Magic. I snapped the strings on mine and haven't seen one >since. I have one of these that I bought when they originally came out. I wouldn't really call it a "level 2" puzzle, as the mechanics are identical to that of the original Rubik's Magic. The goal is different, however. Each plate is divided into different coloured quarters. The object is to get both the proper shape - a cube resting on one of it's edges, centred atop a "platform" of the two other plates - and the proper colour orientation - the three faces that join in each corner of the cube must have identical colours in the quadrant at that corner. -Aaron
