You describe it as a “diamond polished to perfection”. It’s probably fair to allow a little marketing hype, so one would not expect a diamond (!) but is it made from a nice weighty piece of glass? So nice and tactile in your hand. Or is this “diamond polished to perfection” simply plastic?

The Motus is a heavy-duty plastic.

what does Motus stand for and does it come with magic effects?

We unsure what it stands for but no, there's no magic effects. It is "just" a thing of beauty.

I see that a 2" model sells for $32 on Amazon. Prices seem to be on a downward trend, so, my question, wouldn't it be prudent to wait a few weeks?

There are a lot of rip offs online. Be careful whom you buy from.

The Motus is described as 50mm ( which is the size of the original square cubes). I have seen other references that the Motus is 30mm ( not 50mm). Please confirm?

This Motus is 50mm (2in) around.

On the Motus, are the only face colors the C M Y of the original cube, or are others included as well, if so what colors? I am asking this because some combinations result in total clear transparency, something I don't get on the cube. The word “subtractive” appears in some of the manufactures descriptions.

I just checked with the manufacturer and was informed for the Motus that CMY are the only face colors involved with no clear faces.

This belongs on a desk as much as a pen, pencil, paper, and calculator. Place it near a lamp or on top if your lamp has a flat top surface which does't heat up do to the type of bulb used for maximum benefit.
Don't do that if the top transmits heat as the Motus might get damaged. You don't want that to happen.
