Magnetic Jelly Warrior W

[jellycubing]

i bought a qiyi jelly warrior from kewbzuk and put 48 n52 magnets in it. magnets are a bit too strong and make turning quite difficult but its pretty cool and i think its the only magnetic jelly cube in the world

heres a video of it in action:

(sorry for my terrible solving)

Cool cube, I do not think it would be WCA legal though.

yea, transparent pieces provide too much info about the other side.

well why not? its very difficult to see the other colours that you arent looking at let alone manipulate it to get faster solves

Difficult, but not impossible.
Barely still means yes.
So, no transparent parts are permitted, at all. They're all banned, no matter what, to keep people from arguing over degrees of transparency/translucency.

ok? thank you. i just didnt think it seemed right for it to be banned in wca considering how similar this is to when stickerless cubes were banned. stickerless cubes were also manipulatable
