Shashibo Shape Shifting Box - Award-Winning STEM Fidget Toy with Ultra Strong Magnets - Puzzle Cube Transforms Into 100+ Shapes, Perfect Sensory Gift for Kids, Teens, and Adults (Cosmic Surfer)

The grandchildren, ages 8 and 10 both loved these. It is small enough to be a great distraction for them in the car on trips and great to play with. They are colorful and durable. They even used their creativity and joined them together to make a heart for me on Mother's Day. :)

I bought this for a grandchild for Christmas. She loves this kind of thing and I thought she would enjoy it. They are a little steep in price and I must say, I was a bit surprised when it arrived in a tiny little 2.5 x 2.5 inch box, (From the pics, I was expecting something about double that size). I wanted to be certain I was getting a decent quality item, so I removed it from the box and started messing around with it to check quality and entertainment value. Well, we are now 3 days closer to Christmas since it arrived and I am no closer to getting back into that 2.5 x 2.5 box it came in. It is ridiculous how many times I have tried to fold it back into a tiny little square! To be honest, I simply feel frustrated with the whole damn thing. I even had ideations of tearing it apart and gluing it back together. (Then I remembered what I paid and I thought better of it.) The quality certainly seems decent. I am basing that on the fact that it didn't come apart yet and I think I have folded it every which way to Sunday. On the upside, my granddaughter is probably going to love it! She is just 9 yrs old, but will probably get it back in the box in 5 minutes!! So, I guess what I am reluctantly saying, is that I think the entertainment value is there. I still have 20 days to get some help (probably from a kid!) with getting this back in the box it came in. Otherwise, I will find a new box to wrap it in and keep the old box - so I can show the granddaughter how it looked when I got it. It is a little embarrassing that I have found this to be so difficult. But, I am trying to be transparent here and forewarn you that UNLESS you have some help from a genius (ok maybe exaggerating there), DO NOT take it out of the box to try it out if it is a gift for someone else! If they weren't so darn expensive, I would have simply just ordered another one and kept this one for my dumb self. 😜 EDIT: 01/24/23 - I did order a second one for myself (and company) Mind you, I did not even get it out until several days after Christmas. Today is the 24th of January and so we maybe had it opened 3 weeks. It has been played with quite a bit by kids and adults alike, however it is tearing apart at one of the seams. So, frankly we are a bit disappointed for spending $20 on something we thought we would enjoy a bit longer. After only 3 weeks, it is clear this one is not going to last much longer. I guess on the upside, $20 is really pretty cheap entertainment these days, when you consider the cost of going to a movie or bowling, eating out or any other activity. We probably did get at least $20 worth of entertainment, but still. 😢

This was a hit with the kids 8 & 10!! Their parents loved them because they did not fight all the way home in a long car ride! Several of the adults also became mezmerized by them. And 2 is better than one for an individual - they worked out how to surround one with the other. Very entertaining and hellps with memorization and thinking processing details...highly reccommend. Just ordered 2 more!! Great quality.

At first the kids were very interested with this. But as with every other toy, it quickly gets forgotten about. Makes a good car ride toy to keep them occupied without a screen! Purchased for my 9yr old girl and 11yr old boy.

Our kids have collected several of these fun shape shifters over time. They are high quality and hold up well to hours of play. It is especially fun to connect a couple together to make even more shapes. If you are looking for a fun fidget type of toy for a gift, this is a great one to try!

Grandson loves it. He loves fidget toys. Magnets are strong and you can make many different shapes. Great quality for the price. Seems to be durable. Shipping was quick. Would buy again

I picked up the Shashibo Shape Shifting Box thinking it would just be another fidget toy… and it turned out to be a lot more than that. This thing is seriously addictive. It’s not just something you squeeze or spin, it actually transforms into a ton of different shapes. You start messing with it for a minute and next thing you know, 20 minutes are gone and you’re still trying new combinations. The magnets are strong and satisfying, which makes each movement feel smooth and intentional. Nothing feels cheap or loose, everything snaps into place the way it should. The Mystic Ocean design is also a nice touch. The patterns line up differently depending on the shape, so it keeps things visually interesting instead of getting boring after a day or two. What I really like is that it works on different levels: • Quick fidget when you’re stressed • Puzzle when you want to focus • Something creative to mess with when you’ve got downtime It’s one of those rare toys that actually works for: • Kids • Teens • Adults What stands out: • Transforms into tons of shapes (keeps it from getting old) • Strong magnets that feel high quality • Great for focus, stress relief, or just passing time • Unique design makes it visually engaging Minor thing: There’s a small learning curve figuring out some of the shapes, but honestly that’s part of the fun. ⸻ Final Take This isn’t just a fidget toy, it’s more like a mix between a puzzle and a stress reliever. If you’re tired of basic fidget toys that get boring after a week, this is a big step up. It keeps your hands busy and your brain engaged… which is probably why it’s so hard to put down.

This toy was a big hit with my 8 year old step-grandson. We also gave him a Lego Ferrari and I think he liked this shape shifting box better (and he really likes Legos). Well made and a lot of fun to play with. Even the adults were intrigued by all the different shapes it makes. It has magnets in it so the shapes stay together very well. I definitely recommend it.

The quality is great as it is an original Shashibo product. But, it took a lot of time to come as it is an internationally imported product

Molto carino e divertente, fa usare la fantasia.

子供が楽しそうに遊んでいる

Bellissimo gioco per bimbi e adulti fatto bene e con gusto

Second time buying a Shashibo. My grandsons loved this one.
