The long one was called Hero. Ain’t that the truth.
Fairly certain this was proven to be fake
Yes, unfortunately, this is fake.

Oh wow props
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.
This is fake. They do have names, but they are: L, J, Z, S, I, T, and O.
What, no they’re ⅂, ᒋ, Z, S, I, T, and O.
Y’know what, I’ve always called them LJZSITO, and I can find plenty of sources to support that, but I can’t find an authoritative source for it. I feel like I’m about to go down a research rabbithole…
I’m pretty sure that was a photocopied image unfortunately.
Smashboy top name for sure.
Found the 196 user
Smashboy and long girl
Not sure whether I’m more tickled by the fact that the pieces had names or that you looked at the manual :)
And the melody is based on a Soviet march song. (Link leads to YouTube song)
Korobeiniki is a folk song that’s older than the Soviet Union. The Red Army Choir played a lot of Russian folk music.
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.
It will always be LLIIIINE PIEECE to me
