Since GAN and Rubik's collaborated to make a 2x2 and 3x3, they might make a 4x4 and 5x5. It would probably be really good, but...

What if GAN made their own 2x2, 4x4, and 5x5? It would automatically be a lot of people's mains and the price would be waaaay too much.


it would be cool if they made a 1x1
 
Yeah, seems like the downside of the Rubik/GAN collaboration is that neither of them knows how to make particularly cheap cubes. :p

I'd be down for some non-3x3 GAN cubes. I'd honestly really like to see how they'd handle completely different puzzles, like Pyraminxes, Square-1s, etc.

I doubt Gan will make any non-nxn cube. If in a collaboration with Rubik I think only 2x2-5x5 will be made. Rubiks never made a 6x6 or 7x7 and V-Cube might be a bit annoyed if Rubiks has anything bigger than a 5x5 was made. They hav not reacted well to other 6x6s and 7x7s being released in the past.

vcube are still relevant?
Also i thought that rubiks made a clock and pyraminx?

I don't think Rubik's has ever made a Pyraminx. It doesn't really matter whether or not V-Cube is still relevant; it just matters if they think they are (which I'm pretty sure they still do). There's definitely some logic in their arguments, seeing as they do have quite a few patents, so I see no reason why they'd stop trying to fight "knock-offs."

Z-Cube 6 and 7
 
Z-Cube 6 and 7
There was the GuHong, Shengshou 6x6 and 7x7. More I can remember. That they tried to fill patent infringements on. They had not even made a 3x3 when they tried to get rid of the GuHong. They have not seemed to of made a big deal out of moyu, Qiyi as far as I know. But I am sure people who care a lot about knock offs would tell you to buy v-cubes. KOs have not really been as much of a thing recently.

Although, oddly enough (to me, anyway), the Rubik's/Gan 3x3 is the cheapest 3x3 on the Gan website. I am curious to see how much it will cost when it is available in retail stores.

I am curious, though, to see how a non 3x3 Gan puzzle will turn out.
 
Gan seems to be the only company that focuses purely on 3x3x3 cubes - is there a reason why they don't make other types of puzzle?

Surely they are losing out on a significant revenue stream!
 
I would love to see Rubik's make some good cubes. I have respect for them, as they invented the cube and this website and the WCA would not exist without them. I wouldn't but it if it wasn't good, though.

Clock plz :P
 
I designed a p good clock in SolidWorks, but I'm not sure how to get it printed. cuz the problem is the front and back have to be transparent and I don't have transparent filament (is that a thing?).

Idk about transparent filament but you could just make holes in front of the clocks that are slightly smaller than them so they don't fall out
