The Yoshimoto Cube is an interesting mathematical toy based on the magic folding cube. An animation can be found at http://www1.ttcn.ne.jp/a-nishi/y_cube/z_y_cube.html.

The cube illustrated on the web page, is commercially made but is not, as far as I can tell, available in the UK. It can be purchased for a total charge of $90.62 from the Museum of Modern Art (Moma) Gift shop.
