I wonder how much lead is in all those shitty products

Still waiting on the assholes to get their shit in gear and ship my cube pre-order. I'm starting to think I should have just saved some time/money and purchased the knock-off. I just didn't want it to feel cheap and shitty.

Oh well.

You'd have to have ADHD to buy one of these, so I can't comment.

>>58991070
Why not learning to coin roll. It actually looks cool and not so autistic as having one of these literal toys.

They're for autismos and unmedicated ADHD cases.
If you want one of these toys but don't fall into one of those groups, you should probably get tested.

>>58991785
I got in on the original fidget cube after the kickstarter was over, but they're btfo in backorders and can't keep production up. I just hope it means that they have a high quality product and good quality assurance because the ripoffs have been shipping without issue since forever. The quality on ripoffs seems rather dubious though.

>>58991794
Yeah I even gave the assholes my email address so they could provide me with some useful information but I still find myself needing to dig up their swamped ass twitter account instead.

HAH

read through the comments on the ks page, the quality is very inconsistent cube to cube
>>
>>58992007
I was kinda hoping no one will point out that i'm lying to myself.

Manufacturing errors are obviously common anywhere, but at least in this case I feel like they may be reduced. Worst case scenario I can bitch at the company and get a replacement/refund since they aren't an ephemeral amazon seller.

Time will tell.

for 7 dollaries, you can get a Fei Wu, which is pretty damn good for the price. Highly recommend spending a little more for a Valk 3 though.

More crap people want to waste money on and carry around in their pocket like a true sperg.

I remember seeing these being sold on Instagram pages a couple years ago; some chump gets access to a CNC machine and sells them to EDC suckers for ridiculous amounts of money so you can look unique because pens and knives aren't interesting. You can even get them in a pretty little gaybow color.

>>
>>58991070
I have a couple and I enjoy using them but I'd like something more discreet or at least nicer looking without spending crazy amounts of money. A lot of people dont really get them but give em a try and get hooked.

I haven't watched the video but I saw they were featured on unbox therapy, are normies going to start buying these now? At least maybe then the price of quality will lower.

It's a meh game, gameplay gets boring quite quickly, some dialogue makes you audibly groan.
Story is a bit shit, Fidget is actually kinda funny tho.

I think they're fun to dick around with when you're bored doing something, but they seem to encourage a: "everyone has ADHD lol! XD" culture where people tend to obfuscate the fact that they're just bored, not afflicted by a psychological disorder.

look into the development of it, dude did pretty much besides music himself.

You may not like the game but can at least respect the skill.

as for the dialogue, it has the right amount of 4th wall breaking

the guy playing the game is cringy as hell, but this is one of my favorite parts of the game

My boyfriend has one and he sent me a video of it not too long ago. Looks really neat, but it does make a whole bunch of noise, which isn't great if you wanna use it halfway through a class. I'm fine with spinning and clicking a pen anyway. Too expensive t b h

I got a chink FidgetCube recently. I am happy with it, though it has issues such as the spinning fidgets not being smooth. Still, it's decent and will tide me over until my pre-order arrives.

There seems to be two main types being sold out there, the decent quality vinyl cubes and the ultra cheap ABS plastic shit. The sub-$6 cubes seem to be all ABS shit and should be avoided; $6 - $10 sends to be the optimal range to pay. If the picture looks smooth, glossy and chintzy then avoid. The Gearbest cubes are guaranteed garbage. It also seems color matters, the all black ones are more likely to be quality.

Lead paint only poses a threat when consumed, because of potentially small kids licking/chewing their toys it's no longer used.

So unless you like to lick your chinese autism toys you'll be fine.

as someone with real ADD (not my parents and teachers were lazy and put me on meds ADD), having something to fidget with can really help depending on what I'm doing

if I'm trying to watch a video lecture or something, it helps as a controlled outlet for distraction

on the other hand, something to fidget with is a bane and a pox if I need to actually be doing work
if I have something to fidget with and I'm programming or drafting or whatever, my tendency is to sit and stare at the screen and play with whatever instead of typing

>>
>>59004014
all that being said, I'd never pay money for a purpose built fidget toy
if I need to fidget, I fidget with something I already own
I particularly like fidgeting with a handgun because I can practice my trigger pull/control manipulation
