This puzzle comes in a "Meffert's Challenge" package, and is one of a series of at least 10 puzzles. Packaging is interesting in that it mis-spells "Ultimate" as "Utlimate" on the Saturn shaped logo seen immediately above the puzzle. Comes complete with a short handbook which includes details for solving. The mechanism feels very solid and durable, and the labels feel great to the touch, having a brushed-type texture. There are only 6 colours on the puzzle, with opposite faces sharing the same colour. Made in China.
Andy Southern, co-author of the solution, recalls that there were two versions of the packaging. One with the above described spelling mistake, and one without.
