A friend of mine picked up some stuff called (I think) "Gak" from a
local
drugstore.  It's this geletanous semi-solid mass, which can be molded
into
a cube shape.  it won't hold it for long, but you do have the ability to
stick figures inside it and recover them later with no ill effects.  He
bought it to use it as a geletinous cube, in fact....
