The long one was called Hero. Ain't that the truth.

It seems odd that a Russian would name blocks after US states.

Feel like if it were real it would’ve been included in the recent Tetris movie? Too bizarre to have been skipped and fits with the theme of the movie.

Not sure whether I'm more tickled by the fact that the pieces had names or that you looked at the manual :)

Fake or not, this made me finally choose a username and make an account.

I'm pretty sure that was a photocopied image unfortunately. Edit - I meant photoshop.

What's wrong with photocopies? That's how we get to see them.

Aw man, I wish this was truth! It would be as cool when I learned about ghosts in Pac-Man having different behaviors xD

In the Puyo Puyo Tetris series there are characters named after the blocks but they use the letters that they resemble.

And the melody is based on a Soviet march song. (Link leads to YouTube song)
