DaYan+MF8 6x6

Posting on behalf of Mr Bao

This was announced a while ago, though I think these are the first pictures. New mechanism, no hidden layer, no internal lockups. Cool stuff. This is a test model, production coming soon. Those that have tried this version say it turns really well. Edge length 7cm, weight 200g.

Edit: Hmm, why don't images appear directly? Those with the power to do so, feel free to fix this.

I wonder if it is like the dayan+mf8 4x4 in the way that it has a 2x2 at it's very core.

I was wondering o there would be an extension on their 4x4 into a 6x6. I'm really looking forward to testing this out. Same type of core structure as the 4x4. Are there any videos out? When is the final release date going to be? Also, how much will it cost? And how large is it? The 4x4 was pretty big, about the same size as a V-6.

@Collin if you look at the pictures it shows a very similar core to the Dayan 4x4.

Oooh, this looks very exciting. Can't wait to hear more about it.

I hope it won't have the layer misalignments like the vcube 6.

I don't have V6, so I will probably get this once it comes out.
Release Date?

Looks like its based off his work on the 8x8. Basically v5 pieces put together to make a 6x6. I am definitely looking forward to it.

Is this the first cube with a higher order than 5 which doesn't use a V-cube mech?

 

[Pendragon]

17x17 by oskar also hasn't vcube mech.

Anyway, i will buy this 6x6x6 when it comes out.

This is still fairly rooted in the v-cube mechanism. All of the pieces are shaped like v5 ones, and the overall math is probably similar, but it is a big change from the v6 design.

I will probably get this. My v-cube is in pieces.

In before ULTRA POPS

 

[theace]

I'll try this one out if it's cheaper than the V 6

 

[Hays]

I want one. When's it going to be available for purchase?

 

[theace]

It hasn't even entered production yet. ._.

 

[Shortey]

It hasn't even entered production yet. ._.

So?

 

[cubeflip]

I have a YJ 6x6, and I have to say it's not bad, but I would definitely like a better 6x6.

Would they also make the 8x8 and higher even cubes? If they do then this would ruin Verdes.

Not to sound mean to the v-cube company or anything, but that actually might be a good thing. V-cube has basically had almost no competition with larger cubes like the 8x8, so maybe having to compete with other cubes to have the "best 10x10" or something like that might result in new v-cubes coming out soon.

That's because V-Cubes is the only one capable of making anything larger than a 6x6 thats worth buying.
