The first variants of these bandaged cubes were built in the 80's. They were all custom made by several different builders.
In 2009 Evgeniy Grigoriev invented a slightly different variant named "Burr Cube".
The differences are the tiles used instead of stickers and the slightly different bandaging scheme. From the solving point of view the difference is almost nil since both variants can be twisted into each other.
The year given here is a safe bound. In that year this variant was already entered to the predecessors of the museum.
Edge length: 66 mm
Weight: 187 grams

In 2011 a mass produced version hit the market. See images 4-5.
