Finally another review on my blog. Heh heh I guess I haven't done a written review in a while, so here's one. There's a lot of excitement on the V Cubes, especially the V Cube 3x3(if there is such a thing).
So first and foremost I would like to clairfy this. I dubbed this puzzle the V Cube 3 cause at the back of the boxing, it said that this puzzle was made by the same dude who made the V Cubes. I'm not sure if this is true, but I'm certain 95% that this is false. As you can see on the boxing, the name is HB CUBE 3.
It's a pretty cool cube, first off. It's transparent and the inside is modelled after a Ghosthand, so it's basically a Ghosthand wit
h transparent cubies. Heck, you can even see the screws and springs!
So it's cool. I got 2 of this. One yellow and one green. I prefer the green one cause it's my fav colour. It works well even before lubrication, so no complaints there. In fact, I'll say it's good enough to be a speed cube. However, it does lock up a bit here and there. So...I guess it's cause my finger movements aren't in sync.
On the aesthetic side, the stickers aren't bad. They're of a texture that doesn't allow the cube to slip of your fingers during a frantic solve. The orange and red are a bit close tho...so people who are color deficit(like me), bear that in mind if you plan to get this cube.
Any cool features? Yes. Every cubie is hollow and has a cap that can be remove, so if you remove all, you kinda have a hollow cube. It's pretty creative. However the green cube has it's caps popping out so much that I have glued the caps on.
One of these cost me 3 SGD, pretty worth the price.
Currently I don't know where this cube can be purchased. I bought the last 2 off the shelf. Sorry guys.
