I dont know what it is called so I am having trouble finding another one. It is an approximate 3 inch cube that has seens from different movies on each side--wenhad a Cars version and a Toy Story version. Its one piece, but you can rearrange the cube into triangles, a rectangle, etc. to show different scenes/characters from the movie. I hope that makes sense.

I bought it from Michaels at the after Christmas (2010) sale. It was probably considered a stocking stuffer or party favor. It isnt a sturdy toy, and I want to replace it since DS loves it. TIA.

It is a cube flexagon http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=cube+flexagon&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 and it is probably not hard to find instructions for how to make your own if you are feeling creative. Not sure if it has a less mathematical name too! I wouldn't be surprised if Michael's had them again this Christmas - we have a Tinkerbell one from there but we probably bought it in 2010 too.
