Thanks guys. My borg mods tend to start with what I've got spare. The platypus puzzle is a case in point. I have 2 spare, so when they're gone... who knows. Pyraminx, skewbs, whatever takes my fancy. Thanks for the ideas. See what happens in the future...

Have to echo what others have said, this looks great. Your experience with these really shows in the finish.
If you have any spare spherical puzzles, perhaps there's a Death Star mod in our future?

You should Borg yourself for Halloween.
Nice work! Star Trek would be proud.

That looks great. I like to see a new twist on old things, in this case the original Borg cube, where the sides were coloured and was done on a normal 3x3x3. This may have to be another puzzle added onto my list of Borgs.

Nice. The Borg effect looks just as good on other types of cubes.

That is, if we send you a puzzle, will you assimilate it for a fee? I'd pay for your artistry.

Thanks for that. Its something I'm considering, although it's a matter of whether or not I have the time to make all the orders!  I've just finished this platypus mod. I'm making one more, but it'll be different. No hints as yet... After that I have 2 more cubes to make (both different to the standard mirror borg). Then I can start to consider what to do next. Busy busy....

I had a feeling that you'd be modding this but no idea you'd turn it into a Borg puzzle. I hope it sells well as it really is awesome.  Alex

I wish that one of the borgs would contain some egyptian symbols that contain a meaning.
That would be cool!
Very nice though!
