[vloc15]

i bought this cube from a store and the centers and screws really are type D but the core is white and clear..doesnt seem to be type D which is black or dirty white..anyone have an idea?

DS has type d screws.

If the packaging said "Brains Cube", then it's a Type D.

Looks like a type D, but the screws seem different.

Oh that's what that cube was. My 7 year old friend has one who got it in Taiwan. I tried it out and it was REALLY good. Looked exactly like the picture. I just can't stand the white though

 

[vloc15]

do you think this is a type D?

does anyone here have a picture for type A and C? especially the cubies and the core?

this cube i have can actually cut corners better than my type D, i noticed its corner pieces are a bit smaller than the corner pieces of type D's

here's the description of the taiwanese diy, type a(國甲), c(國丙), and type d(國優)from maru.tw:

it said that the taiwanese DIY has a very good quallity(better than RUBIK'S or any chinese DIYs). you actually can't find ANY machine mark on the pieces。the clear core is very strong, that it doesnt make any plastic dusts when using(Way better than the chinese diys). however, there's a few cons about this cube: that these are quite expansive and is hard to find. another is that it doesnt have corner caps, so it feels a bit weird sometimes(hollow).




(edit:i meant 'plastic dusts' not 'machine dusts' dunno why i typed it wrong)

darn, the page is all taiwanese and i cant understand a thing

Umm I'm 99% sure that's Chinese because Taiwanese is only a spoken language, and it looks like Chinese too. Actually almost everything written in Taiwan are in Chinese. But like you said, you don't understand anything so don't be offended

 

[daniel0731ex]

there's no such thing as 'taiwanese writing' or even 'taiwanese characters'.

taiwanese is a language without any writing or characters, they are commonly spoken by old people. taiwanese is actually origined in fujian, china, where some of them moved to taiwan in taiwan's early development stage. later, many immigrant went there from other provinces of china
(this is a bit similar to the american history)

mandarin (srry if i spelled wrong) is the most common language spoken in taiwan. if you have studied Chinese&Taiwanese histories youll find that they(we)are pretty much the same people, except that it's two different nation

(it's like USA and Canada^^)

oh and by the way, the taiwanese DIY is called THIS

the core loses its grip pretty fast though, but you could apply glue into the axle

The cube he showed is not the Tawainese DIY, it has different screws too. The core also presented is a whitish, not a clear thing. It looks like a variation of the DS.
