The face to face connectors are magnets.
When Zubek told me every face attaches to any other face,
I was skeptical, thinking it inevitable that
north would meet north or a south magnetic poles would meet south.
But these really work!
-
Universal connectors that make every face compatible with every other face
is an important strength of this toy.
