How to use it

Start from the closed cube, open one corner and let the magnets lead — never force a piece. Our step-by-step first-fold guide covers the crown, the star and the way back to the box.

Collect & connect

Every Shashibo — DODECA, OCTA and ICOSA XL — connects with the others through its outer magnets, so this one will join any cube you already own.

More about Shashibo TMNT — Donatello, Series 1

Donatello would take one look at this cube and start running experiments. The Series 1 Donnie edition is made for that kind of curiosity: every twist is a small test, every new shape a result worth noting. With more than 100 transformations possible, there is plenty to explore, and the 36 magnets inside are built for both connectivity and durability, so the cube keeps up with long tinkering sessions.

The learning benefits are real, if quiet. Recalling the steps that produce a given shape exercises working memory, and turning flat panels into complex forms builds a stronger grasp of geometric transformations. It suits the whole family from age eight up and makes no noise, which teachers and coworkers will appreciate. Collect all four brothers, link them together and let the inventor in the house take charge.

How it compares on this shelf

Donatello Series 1 is the brainy turtle's original design, aimed squarely at tinkerers. Series 2 Donnie is its direct counterpart with fresh artwork at the same price. Among the Series 1 trio here, Donatello is the experimenter, Raphael the hothead, Michelangelo the fun-lover. Pick Series 1 for the puzzle-minded kid who likes testing things — and add Series 2 to make the two Donnies click together.

Which other Series 1 turtles are on this shelf?
