What are some must-haves for my collection?

[FrankieD]

My apologies if this is the wrong sub-section. I’m fairly new to the forums!

I’m just starting off here. I have less than a year of collecting under my belt.

I have some super cheap 3x3s that I started on, some official Rubik’s merchandise, and then a couple mid to high-end.

As for 3x3s, I have my original main, the QiYi Warrior, Valk 3, Gans Air 356 UM, and my new main, the MoYu WeiLong GTS 2.

As for other cubes, I’ve got a QiYi QiDi S 2x2, YuXin 5x5, QiYi Square-1, MoYu Magnetic Pyraminx, and a Gear Ball.

And a few V-Cubes that I'm ashamed to even mention. A 3x3 V-Cube was my first speed cube a good while back. I had no prior knowledge of their stigma.

In your guys’ opinions, what should be my next few buys? What are some how your favorite cubes/puzzles?

MF3RS2 3x3. You should get it, and it is a great cube!

Also the X-Man Bell pyraminx it great! If you are in to pyra though Which I am.

Hope this helps

If I ever get more "Great" cubes then I will let you know.

Also, the MF3RS2 is only about $8 bucks.

You should get a Moyu Lingpo or Weipo. They are very similar. The Weipo is more smooth and the Lingpo is more scratchy. My 2x2 main is the Lingpo, because I enjoy the crunchy feel and the lower price.

You should get a mirror blocks, either Qiyi or Shengshou they cost about $3

I'll pick one/both of em up soon. They both look great!

I've been meaning to pick one up. I definitely will!

 

[Cristobal]

I got the dark grey one, which is really cool.

I have one...They are really cool! You should get one!

Look into other WCA events, cuboids, and shape mods.

I'm personally a fan of 6x6 and 7x7. One big hole I see in your list is dodecahedrons: you should definitely get a megaminx, a lot of people like kilominx, I have a Gigaminx that I don't solve a ton but it's a fun puzzle when I do, and undeniably cool-looking. One of the puzzles on my wish list is an elite Kilominx, but that's more just because it is cool than that I actually want to solve it many times. If you want a collection another nice one to add is a ghost cube. I've had one in my collection for about 6 months, and even though I've not solved it yet it's an integral part of my collection.

I'd recommend getting a few more of the top 3x3s from the recent past if you can. They're all fun to occasionally solve on even if they're not *the best* anymore. Some feel really different from what's popular today, which I really like, just for variety. The ones I have had that I really like are the Aolong V2, and then some slightly more recent but still really cool and unique ones are the YAN3 and the original Yuexiao. The original Yuexiao is interesting because it is one of simplest mechanisms that Moyu has ever made. I'd also recommend the Yuexiao Pro since it's such a novelty (I don't think another cube like it will be made for a really long time, even though it's pretty good).

That's my two cents, but I'm pretty indifferent to anything that's not a 3x3.

You could also get a 3x3 dodo cube (a cube with only one color on all sides) to practice fingertricking

 

[KeannyThe6x6]

8x8-11x11. If you have enough money, get a Moyu 13x13 or a Yuxin 17x17 (or both)

What's the brand

 

[Not AAron]

I personally love the mini FangShi ShuangRen 3x3. It's a nice little 3x3 that feels unlike any other cube I've ever used and the primary w/ black caps version looks really cool to IMO.

Also mentioned above; megaminx and ghost cube. Two of my favorite puzzles to solve for fun.

 

[cuber314159]

I would recommend the qiyi wu- line cubes, they are usually the best by far.

Thanks everybody! Seems from the time I fell asleep last night I got quite a few more responses. I hope one post thanking you all for your input it sufficient!
