The Complete Nice Cube Color Guide

The Nice Cube is the most popular NeeDoh product, and its wide range of colors has made it a collector's dream. This guide covers every known Nice Cube color variant, from the most common to the rarest, with tips on how to find each one.

Common Colors (Widely Available)

These colors are currently in production and can be found at most major retailers:

Classic Pink The original Nice Cube color and still the most popular. Available at virtually every retailer that carries NeeDoh. This is the color most people picture when they think of NeeDoh.

Classic Blue A close second in popularity. The cool blue tone is a favorite among collectors who prefer a calmer aesthetic. Widely available at Target, Walmart, and Amazon.

Classic Green Fresh and vibrant, the green Nice Cube is a staple of the product line. Often the last to sell out at retailers, making it one of the easiest to find.

Classic Yellow Bright and cheerful, the yellow variant is popular with younger users. Readily available at most retailers.

Orange A warm, energetic color that stands out in any collection. Available at most retailers but slightly less common than the classic four.

Retail price: $5-8 each

Uncommon Colors (Limited Distribution)

These colors are produced in smaller quantities and may only be available at certain retailers or during specific seasons:

Lavender A soft purple that has become increasingly popular. Primarily available at Barnes & Noble and specialty toy stores.

Teal A blue-green hybrid that appeals to collectors seeking something different from the standard colors. Found mainly at Five Below and Learning Express.

Coral A pink-orange shade that was introduced in Spring 2026. Available at select Target locations and online.

Mint A pale green that has a calming, pastel quality. Limited distribution through specialty retailers.

Retail price: $8-12 each, $15-25 on secondary market

Rare Colors (Limited Production)

These colors were produced in limited quantities and are no longer widely available at retail:

Tie-Dye Swirl A multi-color swirl pattern that was released as a Summer 2025 exclusive. Each cube has a unique pattern, making them especially collectible. Sold out within days of release.

Metallic Silver A shiny, reflective silver finish that was part of the Holiday 2025 collection. The metallic coating gives it a premium look and feel. No longer in production.

Glow-in-the-Dark A pale green in daylight that glows bright green in the dark. Originally released for Halloween 2025, this variant has become one of the most sought-after Nice Cube colors.

Color-Change A temperature-sensitive cube that shifts between two colors based on heat. The color-change feature adds an interactive element beyond the standard squish.

Retail price: $10-15 each (when available), $25-60 on secondary market

Ultra Rare Colors (Collector Market Only)

These are the holy grails of Nice Cube collecting. They were produced in very limited quantities and are only available on the secondary market:

First Edition Pink (2017) The original Nice Cube from the product's launch. Distinguishable by the older packaging design and slightly different texture formula. Only a few hundred are believed to still exist in good condition.

Sakura Pink (Japan Exclusive) A delicate cherry blossom pink released exclusively in Japan in 2024. Never sold in North America or Europe. The packaging features Japanese text and unique artwork.

Holiday Gold (2025) A shimmering gold cube released as part of the 2025 Holiday Collection. Only 500 were produced, each numbered. The most valuable Nice Cube variant on the secondary market.

Artist Collaboration Series A set of three cubes designed in collaboration with contemporary artists, released at a 2025 art convention. Only 200 sets were produced, and they were only available at the event.

Secondary market price: $50-500+ each
