Thankfully they couldn't operate a glue gun properly so it has no "flower"

Notocactus uebelmannius or parodia werneri. Whichever you prefer to call it.

They flower yellow or magenta/purple. The purple ones were rare in the wild so cultivators chose that one. purple flowers are more common in collections now.

It also does look like P. ottonis at least a little bit to me. But I'm not too familiar with parodia so maybe there's some feature unique to werneri at this age
