Random Terrain's Tetraternarium

The Wham-O Magic Window that I had was a thin clear plastic oval container filled mostly with white and blue sand-like material. It was kind of fun for limited amounts of time and I wanted to know the name of it, but I couldn't find anything about it since I couldn't remember the name of the 'toy' or the company that made it. It was finally found today. I read somewhere that Wham-O might make it again if they get enough requests.

Roy Cloutier is supposed to be the "original engineer who designed and marketed the product" and he is supposedly selling a rectangular version. If it is true, and not someone just trying to make a quick buck, I don't like the looks of it. There doesn't seem to be enough white 'sand' and one of the things that made the Magic Window kind of fun was its shape. The rectangular shape ruins the effect for me.
