The Pyraminx is a classic tetrahedron-shaped mechanical puzzle originally invented by Uwe Mèffert in 1970. Although it predates the Rubik's Cube, it gained massive popularity during the 1980s puzzle craze. The specific model shown in the image is a 'stickerless' version, which uses colored plastic pieces instead of adhesive decals, a design choice common in modern 'speedcube' variants meant for competitive solving.

MoYu, the brand behind this specific variant, is one of the most prominent manufacturers in the speedcube industry. Based in Shantou, China, MoYu is known for its high-performance internal mechanisms and sub-brands like MoFang JiaoShi (MeiLong). Production for these puzzles is concentrated in China, which serves as the global hub for mechanical puzzle manufacturing due to specialized injection molding and assembly processes. Ownership remains within the founding Chinese entity MoYu Culture and its parent group.
