Lubix Fusion?

[MovingOnUp]

I'm going to refrain from selling anchors.

I have my reasons

More like it is totally stealing Donovan's idea sorta lol

 

[da25centz]

$8 for anchors? Jesus its nearly cheaper to just buy a lunhui and take the anchors. When I watched the video I was thinking that they would be great to have for my lingyun, then I went and looked at the price . Yeah, not gonna buy these. At least, not yet.

Double set of Lingyun torpedoes duly ordered especially as the Zhan Chi could not quite remove my Lingyun from main status.

 

[Clayy9]

...but I have no idea what it might be. Is it a ultimate guhong with lunhui torpedoes...

Original post; correct guess. Nice.

 

[RaresB]

wait im really worried, are white cubes SOOO much better then black, i cant cube with white, am i missing out on alot, should i switch to white plastic.

 

[Shamankian]

Yeah the white Zhanchi is much better than black (from experience of assembling and testing orders).

Oh ye? May I ask how much better you would say it is? I mean, is it a huge deal or just a tiny bit?

 

[Godmil]

From what I've read it's really subtle, certainly nothing compared to the recognition hit you'd take using a colour you're not comfortable with. So I wouldn't worry

 

[Bapao]

Don't worry I just bought the anchors, I'll make a review

Nice one! Thanks for being a pioneer Looking forward to your insight.

Not really surprised.
I have some spare screws, probably going to use those. My Lingyun is ridiculously good, but its only problem is it's popping, and when it pops, like five pieces fall out.

Me neither. Shame.
I'm starting to have the same issue with popping though bruv...Nice one, screws seem to be the way to go if you want to keep things cheap.

Mine are still pretty new - maybe yours are near retirement age

The price of the torpedoes - too steep - its the equivalent of an F2/F3. Can't blame him tho - he needs to quickly recoup his design and set up cost (mold) thro his early sales. I bet price will drop after a few months (esp if lingyun 2 comes out)

I can wait, esp with my zhanchis on the way

Still, looking forward to a review (to see if grinds against the core or gets in the way of a typical, fast turn)

Nah, they haven't seen that many solves. I have a bunch of other 3x3x3s that I alternate between. I try to use all of my cubes (apart from my modded store bought which still isn't very nice to cube with). I'm kinda trying to save my LingYuns for when I'm around the 15 sec mark. If I ever get there. But I still use them frequently.

Yeah, I have the same handicap, I compare everything around the 10 dollar mark with the cost of a similarly priced cube

Can't wait; I'll be ordering the Fusion in a few days. Really excited about it.

LOST!!!!!!!!!!




I feel the exact same about it feeling like the Gu Hong, only I feel like it's not quite as good. It seems too slow unless you JUST lube it, plus, I need a new core because I didn't get the screws in perfectly straight, which won't allow me to get the tension right. I hate crooked screws.



White Dayans are always much better than black. The plastic is made with full PVC, while the blacks are mixed PVC, making the white ones feel much softer and kind of rubbery, so you get this super fast, bouncy effect from them. My white Gu Hong is the best cube in the world.

wow. i just HAD to buy my elite in black :'(

not SOOOOO much better. just slightly better

 

[BigGreen]

white vs black plastic again...

 

[Shamankian]

I'm guessing ABS primary colour as well as the coloured versions (green, orange, blue etc etc etc) are the same as white, or is that incorrect?

Opinion:
Lubix Fusion vs Ultimate Zhanchi


I have only tried a guhong and a lunhui.

 

[RaresB]

I would take the zhanchi because 1. People say it's better then a guhong
2. It's basically like a zhanchi fusion it has torpedoes for no extra cost.
3 l. IZ SOO MUSH SHIPER (it's cheaper)

idk...i am skeptical over the torpedo craze. i hear that ppl remove their torpedoes from their lunhuis and zhanchis cause without them they are less locky and those cube don´t actually pop that much anyway.

my lubix ultimate guhong rarely pops but then...i am not a crazy fast cuber yet.

and i find it strange donovan doesn't sell fusion lingyuns...

I fully agree with you I removed the torpedoes from both and I find them better, I don't pop very often that why I c the torpedoes as a drawback.

I think you left out a word... yet

I would be surprised if they don't sell them... the real question is what will the name be?!!

I sort of thought up these names....

Wicked
Hypnotic
Meteoric
Da Bomb
Absolute
Bolt
Flash
Dart
Prime
Express
Propel
Super (Superb)
Optimal (Optimum)

Remember, in the launch video, he did say that more cubes are coming... could some be LingYuns? I hope so...

The problem with the torpedoes is that whenever the cube DOES pop, the torpedoes take the corners out with them, so the cube explodes.

That's why I got rid of my LunHui.
