The last picture of cube is for collection instead of speed cubing. PC transparent one.

From the company,the release time of prototype would be at the end of June. The finished-product would be early July or Mid-July

I really like the idea of chip pieces instead of stickers! I have always wanted cubes with interchangeable pieces so you can make them picture cubes and stuff! Anyone want to make a cube like that?

That sounds interesting.
Anyway,the chip pieces instead of stickers is another innovation of fangshi.
 
I'm pretty sure that chip pieces is not a Funs Puzzle or Fangshi innovation. Cube4You had 3x3s with them in like 2010 or 2011 if I remember correctly. But this 2x2 could be really good.

Yeah, Cube4you was first as far as I can remember but Rubik's also did it with their new 2x2s. So (Funs Puzzle) claiming it's their innovation is a bit sketchy. Not a big deal though. Seems like it'll be an interesting cube :P
 
That 2x2 looks quite interesting, especially with the modifiable size. But I guess I can already tell the obvious downside: The usual, boring and dull colour scheme.

As there are coloured "chips" instead stickers, they at least should be made using resin of more vibrant colours instead in the first place, like fluorescent yellow and fluorescent green instead of the typical yellow and green. Also, light blue and bright red instead of normal blue and red. And of course a lighter orange.

The normal colours typically used on stickers are just way too dull.
