yay so there will be "original mold WeiLongs"

 

[Zyrb]

Hopefully that will make all versions to become legal, though I still don't think the WeiLong breaks any rules. I doubt that delegates are going to check everyone's WeiLongs if the only difference between the versions is corners. Could you post a translated quote?

 

[Masimosir]

And he claimed that the wei long made from the new mold will be better

 

[Masimosir]

From the original post

据说威龙已经出了新模具的修改版，
Heard that the new corrected weilong mold is out
可以弥补了这个威龙不对称的问题。
It can correct the problem of misalignment on the weilong
如果到时候的新一代产品的手感更好就太好了~~
Hope that the newer weilong's have better feel

My bad I misread that last line , pls ignore my previous post on that guy claiming the new weilojg will feel better

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Misalignment? Doesn't bode well now does it.

 

[Zyrb]

By misalignment is he referring to the corner cap asymmetry? Doesn't it seem a bit crazy that the day after only one delegate said the cube was illegal a new mold is made? It seems that this has been blown way out of proportion.

 

[windhero]

The problem is that the corner cap pair is not a perfect fit, so I bet that's what the so called misalignment was about

 

[Username]

What misalignment?I can't get any misalignments at all. The layers stay aligned very well

 

[Masimosir]

If I am not wrong , the guy says that the corners are misaligned ....but if you guys who alr have the cube and have no problem. ...then I think something is wrong with that guy weilong

 

[windhero]

Misalignment as in when you put the corner pieces together (the 2 pieces that make 1 corner piece) the pieces are different and not from the same mold like with the edge pieces for example. The fitting of these 2 pieces is not perfect and it "misaligns" creating that little bump on the edge of the corner that apparently is such a big deal that the cube is "illegal" at comps.

Not.

Also my prototype would we worth even more, but I don't think it will happen

 

[Masimosir]

So envy of you people that got the prototype haha

 

[mark49152]

Not.

You'll never make it happen with such negativity. Do us a favour and hype it instead, please. It feels unlike any other cube ever, right? Like butter mixed with superfluid nano dream particles? And sings like a bird when you solve it?

It is amazing, but $100 is a bit too much, especially for such a short period of time

You don't work in marketing, do you

LOL.. I really did laugh out loud..

So I got mine today. It's pretty fast. Smooth and slightly clicky.
One VERY annoying thing though. My blue center cap falls off very easily. I will do about like ~10 turns and it will fall off. No other center caps do this.
I'm probably going to stick with the Fangshi (even if the center caps didn't fall off).
