We consider one of the Fulleroid-like mechanisms based on a cube described by G. Kiper and K. Wohlhart. Due to the generation of this mechanism G. Kiper and K. Wohlhart worked out a highly symmetric one-parametric self-motion ζ0(t) of the mechanism and displayed some of the states of this motion. This mechanism consists of 24 rigid bodies linked via 24 1R-joints and 12 spherical 2R-joints. As this Fulleroid-like mechanism admits the self-motion ζ0(t) it is an example of an overconstrained mechanism and as such of high interest. But surprisingly, a physical model of this highly overconstrained mechanism seems to admit more possible self-motions than ζ0(t) !
