A replica of Minecraft Magma Cube made of tiny magnetic construction cubes.

First we design the cube in the Tayasuyi blocks app.

Then we put together we build the Magma Cube using the Pixio magnetic construction bricks.

We used over 300 Pixios for the project (some go inside to support the extra elements).

Then we attach a Makeblock Halocode board (of course you can just use a couple of LEDs connected to a battery) and write a short code using mBlock programming suite.

All ASMR style!
