Revolution Iqube

Revolution Iqube

Looking for a stocking filler for the revolutionary in your life? How about keeping them quiet for a couple of hours with the Revolution Iqube game?

The game is made from four perspex cubes covered with a retro Chinese propaganda poster. The aim is to have all cubes side-by-side, showing the same image on each cube on all four of the long four sides. It's a good job that the poster used is pretty striking as, with apparently 40,000 different combinations and only one solution, you'll likely be looking at them for a fairly long time. 

For £10 it certainly makes a change from the challenges of the Rubik's cube.

Fiona Hewitt’s Pop Dumpling Dynasty print

Dumpling

Fiona Hewitt is the illustrator behind the Dumpling Dynasty whose kitsch kits are for sale throughout the UK (we featured their shoe shine kit early last year). The Boxbird store also has a selection of her prints online, including the Pop print shown above. 

The giclee print, a fake advert for a sickly looking pink drink, features an overly cute boy and his loyal donkey and shows her usual beguiling mix of influences: everything from Chinese communist propaganda alongside advertising and packaging from the 40s and 50s. If you decide this look works for you, this particular print costs £200.
