80s Trivia: Which of these colors was not on the original Rubik's Cube?

Who doesn't remember the Rubik's Cube?  The addictive toy first came out in 1974 but exploded onto the scene in 1980 and became an instant smash.  The original cube, of course, consisted of six colors.  The goal was to have all of the colors on the same side.

So, here is today's trivia question off of Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia - Which of these colors was not on the original Rubik's cube?  Red, White, Purple or Orange?

The correct answer is purple, as you can probably tell from the picture above.  The original cube came with red, blue, orange, white, yellow and green - but no purple.  Of course, there have since been numerous variations on the original classic Cube, including cubes made up of 2, 4, 5 and 6 rows.

Here is a downright frightening video of a...robot...solving the cube.
