Additional details
- Additional Input: Matrix Data Bank (From DWM 75) David J Howe corrects the statement concerning the Key to Time in the Matrix Data Bank. The pieces did in fact fit together to form a cube, but were not held together by the Tracer, for which a separate prop was used. Incidentally, the first and sixth segments were identical.
