Does anyone know how I could obtain one of the hot pepper cubes that
were given away at the WC05 after-party? I was there, but was
evidently busy stuffing my face with food when those cubes were
handed out. These are the cubes from the Japanese snack company
Tohato, and they picture a jack-o-lantern hot pepper on each face.
Apparently they are fairly challenging since each face uses the same
scheme. I've seen videos of Yuki Hayashi and Katsuyuki Konishi
solving it, and they take considerably longer than their normal
solving times!
Anyway, I've checked on the Tohato site and eBay but I haven't seen
any for sale. If someone has an extra, or wants to sell theirs,
please let me know. Thanks!

P.S. The week before WC05, I had an idea for a "Rubik's Magic
Pumpkin" puzzle that would be similar to the Homer Head or Darth
Maul 2x2 cubes. But the idea I had was that when it was in the
solved position, the eyes of the pumpkin would light up or something
like that. So it would be like a jack-o-lantern cube. So when I
spotted the Tohato cubes at WC05, I was quite surprised! I guess
it's not that big of a coincidence since WC05 was the week after
Halloween.
