Weight 159g but I don't believe that. Also says it comes with a CD!

There's a 2x2 too.

I'm going to be receiving one of their 2x2s from LighTake to do a review soon. Should be interesting to see how good it is. :tu

There is also a 4x4x4 and a 55mm 3x3x3

My friend bought this cube from China (a mall of some kind). It was around 75 to 80 yuan. (Around 12 dollars, I reckon). Not sure if it was the exact same thing. But it had the same logo and was stickerless. But I still can't understand how he got it before it's launch at a store.
I have tried it, the internals look like a mixture of the guhong and the witeden 3x3.
The torpedoes were moulded with the edges.
The peculiar thing is that the colours were half brights. (Flouro yellow, orange, green and standard blue and maroonish red).
Very controllable and good for beginners. Go above 5 tps and it will lock up.

As I said before I tested this cube.
The pieces have a longer stock. And they are designed more like a simplified dayan cube.

Aaaaaaaand it's stickerless.

****.

EDIT: Apparently C-R-A-P is censored.

There's two versions. Strengthened and simplified. The simplified is very brighter and if I had to choose I would do the simplified. It looks so vibrant.

I just got the simplified one today. Ordered it from lightake just before christmas. It's the one the cubicle is calling the FeiWu.

I really like it.

It's 56mm (not 55) and weighs 89grams. Came in a hard to open retail blister pack. Lots of packaging. Somebody really believes in packaging and branding. No CD in the simplified version.

It was tensioned pretty tight and lubed with a fast thin lube all over including the springs. Turns very very well. If you loosen it up it can pop. Not pops all the time but just it can even though the edges are "double torpedoed". It's easier to pull a corner out than an edge.

Moves like a stickerless shaungren/zhanchi hybrid. It's not quite either of them but it is a heck of a lot of very very good cube for $4. Very good out of the box.

After a day I can say it's fun and hard to put down.
