I had a bunch of those. The Missing Link, Rubik's Cube, Rubik's Snake and The Orb by Parker Brothers.
You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
I was never very good at them. They only one I could ever solve was the Missing Link.

Had/have those three plus:
Rubic's revenge, the 4x4 cube,
Alexandar's star google it to hard to describe,
and Tomy's Mega Minx a 12 sided polyhedral where the 12 sides were pentagon shaped.
I had Rubix and Pyraminx when they originally came out.
I remember around 1981, one rainy afternoon at our summer house, I got frustrated with Rubix, went off to a dark corner, and took it apart to complete it. I then proceeded to parade around bragging that I had solved it in near record time. My upright WASPy grandfather immediately sat me down and gave me a stern lecture on the importance of modesty and truthfulness. I could never get anything past him...
Rubik's Cube, and a small keychain version of Pyraminx.
(I remember getting the Rubik's Cube free from a large book store with the purchase of a Broom-Hilda paperback in '83... I guess they must have had a surplus of cubes!)
I hated the Orb. It seemed to be the most desperate cash grab of them all.
Looking for Green Arrow accessories, Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver, and Japanese Popy Megos (Battle Cossack and France, Battle of the Planets, Kamen Rider, Ultraman) and World Heroes figures
