ok, not exactly a techie, but I do know my stuff. in short, they do repel. every magnet has to sides, a south and a north, like sides repel,oppositesattract, blablabla, you learned all of this a long time ago. well, a neocube's magnets are no different: each magnet has a south and a north, just like any other self respecting magnet. when put together in a cube (or any other shape, for that matter) all of the spheres have their south poles on one side, and the north poles on the other. the cube itself will form one large magnet as it were, having both a south pole and a north pole, dictated by theorientationof the mini spheres. this also means that if you were to take two assembled neocubes and bring their like sides near each other, they would repel. if you brought theiroppositesides close, then they would yank together and smash into a giant crumpled mess.
