This is henceforth the chronicle of me having a hard time finding a cosmic cube prop.
I know there have been a couple cosmic cube accessories included with toys over the years, mostly Red Skulls. However, they're oddly difficult to find loose on ebay, or even to find simple resin casts of.
Thinking it was a simple geometric shape and in a fairly common color, I next tried to find some cube beads that could pass for a cosmic cube, figuring I could fill in the hole or just use it for posing purposes. But much to my surprise, there are no cube beads. All cuboid beads are really little faceted round things that don't fit the description at all.
Finally, I resolved to just make one out of resin myself. The only downside is that's a lot of work to make one blank plastic cube. With that in mind, I'll probably be filling it with pigments to give it that spacey, cloudy, starry look it has in the movies. And since that's even more work to make just one little plastic cube, I figure I should probably make a ton and just sell them on the internet. Call 'em Hyper Cubes or something. 3 bucks+postage gets you an 8*8*8mm cube filled with sparkly blue glowy stuff. Thoughts?
