Bucky Balls


Have you ever seen a child's set of building toys and thought, "I wish I could still play with those..."? Well, friends, I present to you Bucky Balls: The Perfectly Acceptable Adult Building Toy. Yes, they are pricey ($30), but satisfying to play with. Not quite as satisfying as building a Lincoln Log cabin or super awesome Lego toy--more like as satisfying as zoning out for thirty minutes while you try to figure out how to make a cube out of strong spherical magnets. It does lack the high frustration quotient of a Rubik's Cube, which is another plus.
