Fangshi new 2x2 - "ShiShuang" 方是 世双

[KongShou]

Original thread

Basically it talks about how hard it was to finally get this mass produced and go through its mechanism. The alignment mechanism uses the special Fangshi core used before in other Fangshi cubes, and the corner pieces will continue to be like the will known Shuangren corner piece in terms of how it assembles and works.
It does not use stickers. Instead we have caps which will snap on to the 2x2.

wow pics so big

Yay another FangShi. I'll definitely be getting this. Not the one with hearts, obviously. Interesting that the two newest cubes, this and the LingGan, both don't use stickers.

If this feels like a normal Fangshi, it'll be crap.

Has anyone tried the 55 mm versions ( or are there only 55 mm)? I am really looking forward to a slight bigger 2x2.

Isn't this veeerry similar to the LingPo.

I'm curious about this too. Bigger cubes are so much easier to manipulate for me.

Well the SR was pretty similar to the Weilong...or the other way around.

It's still unclear what type of alignment mechanism will be on this 2x2.

So many new cubes. I say screw this. My Dayan is a beast. Really can't get any better.

Looks like the Fangshi 2x2 is coming out soon. Now lets see Fangshi come out with a 4x4 and see if they can compete there also.

Nice sticker colors. It looks like a promising cube.

They are ok colors I think, but they are not stickers I've heard. They are plastic tiles set into the pieces. So we can't change the colors if we wanted to.

wow, chips instead of stickers !

Does anyone have the 55 mm fangshi shishuang? do you recommend it? do you like the size, the feeling of it...?

Check out the YouTube for answers.
I think CubeOrCubes made a video about 55mm ShiShuang, and couple of other youtubers also have a video.

I have one on the way to me from Wallbuys.

I do 2X2 for more than a year. I could not get any better than 12 secs average. With my 55 mm I had an Ao100 of 9.37. It's awesome.
