Cool Horror Gear: Mezco Toyz Hellraiser Puzzle Cube

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

Back in December/January, Clive Barker offered up 87 exact replicas of the Lament Configuration puzzle box featured in his film HELLRAISER. Affixed to a base, those boxes were selling for $450 a piece.

That's a hell of a collectible that 87 fans have in their collection, but if you're in the market for your own Lament Configuration that goes for a lower price and can be moved, Mezco Toyz is accepting pre-orders for something awesome. A HELLRAISER III: HELL ON EARTH Lament puzzle box that is essentially a HELLRAISER Rubik's Cube.

Featuring artwork based on the designs of Philip Lemarchand, the prop-sized square puzzle rotates on both the X and Y axis with an almost supernatural smoothness. With 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 possible combinations, even Dr. Channard would find himself bedeviled in a quest for the solution.

Suitable for use as a fiendishly confounding puzzle or as a film replica display piece — the choice is yours.

Why it has taken nearly thirty years for an item like this to be released is beyond me, but HELLRAISER fans can finally have a movable puzzle box in their hands this September or October, and it will only set them back $13, plus shipping.
