Yeh... not even real photos which suggests they don't actually have one yet -.-

Doesn't matter if there is nothing new. If they post something on their official Facebook page they are at least going somewhere with it.

at least they are acknowledging it's existence

(even though it doesn't exist at the moment D: )

I've heard that it's already out in china but I'm still not sure about that. More info about the 5x5 http://www.mofangluntan.com/thread-40596-1-1.html

Lot's of people asking for samples but no sign of any of them getting one.

Nope! No release date yet! THE SPECULATION STILL SURVIVES!

3rd September 2014.

Since they told us the exact release date, I am pretty sure it will come out in September 3rd.

Ugh and I was just about to mod and resticker my SS, now I'll wait a few weeks and see if they actually release this.

Do you guys think this is going to be better than/on par with/worse than the SS? Only reason why I'm asking is because the Aofu was just not that great. And for some reason it reminded me of some sort of bland substance

The Aosu was so much better than Shengshou, I think it's a fair bet that the cube only one order higher will also be much better than Shengshou. For a start, look at the pre-Florian modded design, all the way through. That bodes well for corner cutting and smoothness overall.

The Half Life 3 of cubing finally has a release date. Let's all hope the cube comes out on time and lives up kt the Moyu standard.

Nah, no one cares about them, we already have all of those. Not really Half Life 3s.

Let's hope that this is actually happening!

IMO the aofu is only "not great" because of the pillowedness. It moves much better than the shengshou mini and pops less. If it was cubic it would have been the superior cube, I have high expectations for this cube but I'm not expecting it to be perfect out the box seeing as my shengshou has about 5-10k solves on it

I'm seeing the delay as a good thing. I hope they weren't content putting an inferior product onto the market and now it is ready.

I'm looking forward to actually practicing 5x5 and learning Hoya on it.

If the improvement over the shengshou is anywhere near the improvement in quality that the Aosu provided, I'm going to be doing a lot of 5x5 in a week or so.

Also, I predict that world records may drop a bit over the next few months/whenever Feliks' next competition is.

If Feliks gets a sub 40 WR 5x5 AVG with the Moyu 5x5 then we all know that it will be a very good cube.
