1981年版 TOMY品牌 Megaminx

我记得大烟头的图库里就有类似的照片。
大家都老魔友了，知道Meffert's都是买专利来量产，多数都不是自己研发的。

第一. tomy的五魔方确实是meffert同学提供的设计。
第二. supernova的生产时间稍稍早于megaminx，虽说外观略有不同，大体是相同的，也就是说五魔方tomy不是最早的。
第三. meffert到底设计的，还是买的，我也没搞明白，meffert官网上说是“Uwe Meffert got his impulse from Kersten Meier and Udo Krell which finally led to the production of the Megaminxes in Hong Kong.”而在 Cubic Circular, Issue 3&4中说“Uwe Mèffert has bought the Halpern and Meier rights, which were both filed on the same day about a month before Kristóf”

附上一段资料：
1
A communication from Christoph Bandelow ：”there were at least half a dozen of people or groups of people who have - within a few weeks in 1981 - filed a patent application for the Magic Dodecahedron. The patent attorney Moll filed only a "Gebrauchsmuster" without giving any technical details. This did not have any consequences. My own patent application however (jointly with Helmut Corbeck, a student whom I had asked to make the final drawings for me) did have consequences. It was bought by ARXON (the German division of Ideal Toy). Together with Ideal Toy France and Ideal Toy Britain, ARXON organized the production of our dodecahedron in Hungary. Of course, Hungarian engineers still had to work out many details of the production and assembling. At nearly the same time, but a few weeks later and completely independently, Uwe Meffert got his impulse from Kersten Meier and Udo Krell which finally led to the production of the Megaminxes in Hong Kong“

2. The Magic Dodecahedron has been contemplated for some time. So far I have seen photos or models from: Ben Halpern (USA), Boris Horvat (Yugoslavia), Barry Lockwood (UK) and Miklós Kristóf (Hungary), while Kersten Meier (Germany) sent plans in early 1981. I have heard that Christoph Bandelow and Doctor Moll (Germany) have patents and that Mario Ouellette and Luc Robillard (Canada) have both found mechanisms. The Hungarian version is notable as being in production ... and as having planes closer to the centre so each face has a star pattern."
"Uwe Mèffert has bought the Halpern and Meier rights, which were both filed on the same day about a month before Kristóf. However there is an unresolved dispute over the extent of overlap in designs."
