C4U Gigaminx

[OtakuCuber]

So, this is by far the worst puzzle I've ever had. And that's saying a lot since I used to only buy cheap eBay puzzles.
I got this thinking it wasn't a C4U, but apparently it is, and the quality proves it.
Is there ANY way to make this decent enough to even use? I can't even scramble it at the state it's in now. And I'd like to think that I didn't COMPLETELY waste $30.

Also, a bit off topic, but I'm looking for a white MF8 Gigaminx if anybody can direct me or possible sell me one.

Sorry for your bad experience. That puzzle is well known for its terrible performance. I believe there are a couple of videos of youtube showing possible fixes, but nothing will probably make it a good cube.

I remember seeing MM&P making a video about putting dirt in it. But I feel like there has to be a better solution than that.
Looking at the puzzle I feel like maybe filling the hollow pieces may help reduce the constant catching issue. But the alignment I'm not sure to how improve.

If filling the pieces will help, is there any way to fill it with white material? As far as I know Apoxy is only in black?

I've never tried filling in pieces, but if you fill in every piece the cube will be VERY HEAVY, especially in a megaminx/gigaminx. There are just so many pieces to fill.

The white plastic MF8 is discontinued to my knowledge so you'll have to get one used.

Heavy would be better than catchy in my opinion. Do you know of any other options I may be able to take by any chance?

Yea, that's why I was hoping somebody either knew a shop that had stock or had one they no longer wanted.
