Super-rectangle (Numberblocks)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Super-rectangles (Numberblocks) are a type of Numberblocks that are characterised by their watches (which can display many different rectangles that they can form) and the fact that they can create many different rectangles[1] by rearranging their blocks. They also have a club known as The Super-Rectangles club[2][3]. There is a similar club known as The Super-duper-Rectangles club[4][2][3]. The first super-rectangle is Twelve, who is the sister of Eighteen, who first appeared in the epsoide "Twelve" in series 3 of Numberblocks. [5]

Special items and abilities

Watches (Array display)

Super-rectangle have watches [6](called "Array display"[7]) on their arm which is used to show the array of unique rectangular shapes that the numberblock can create.

Rays

Rays are trails that a numberblock create when they propel themselves against any form of force in any direction[8]. The larger the amount of rays a numberblock can create, the higher its velocity is. All numberblocks can create rays, but the first user is a super-rectangle (Twelve)[5]. Numberblocks can either use existing tracks to move[9][10][11][12] or propel themselves to anywhere they want (but it is a skill; it needs mastering[13][14]).
