Rubik's Bricks, Rubik's Clock, Rubik's Triamid
Rubik's Bricks, Rubik's Clock, Rubik's Triamid, all with original packaging. The Clock box is a bit crunched on one corner, with tape on the end-flaps, while the Triamid box shows medium wear, and the blister pack for the Bricks has been pulled off the cardboard backing. Instruction sheets are included with Clock and Bricks, and I don't think Triamid came with one (it's pretty simple; the instructions are on the back of the box). Total weight is 1 lb, 2 oz.
