Master Pyraminx (flat sided) finally released

[Tony Fisher]

Well it's taken over 40 years for this to be mass produced but finally it's here. Sold as a 4 layer Pyraminx and available for $20- http://tinyurl.com/MasterPyraminx

Finally...I have been waiting on this for so long

That's cool, I remember talking with a cubing friend back in the 80's about the possibility of this puzzle existing.

It's not going to be long before one of the "What new puzzle should be WCA legal?" threads gets bumped with this as the newest suggestion....

I couldn't get any success out of the tinyurl redirect thing, but a quick search reveals it's made by Shengshou, and here's a link to it:

Excellent! I love this puzzle but the Mefferts is trash.

Looks cool I want one.

Ooh, I would actually love for this to be official, not that I've ever solved one.


I wonder what methods will be developed for this, or if many people will even try speedsolving this

Just wait.

They also use the "SOLD OUT" indicator for products that are not in stock.

Well spotted. I stopped using them as their delivery is slower than Champion's Cube Store but that's a great price so order has been placed . Thanks.

It's less than 10 dollars on magic cube mall

Is it possible this will be made stickerless? Does the construction allow it?

 

[Cubister]

The current construction does not allow a stickerless version.

If Shengshou doesn't come with it's own stickerless version I guess someone else will, depending on the success and demand of this product.

I love that SS is pumping out awesome (albeit non-WCA) puzzles this year. Definitely getting this. I'll probably wait for it to hit a US Store, tho.

It looks like Qiyi already has a prototype and plans for a stickerless version.

I got one today. Squeaks a bunch on one axis before doing anything (louder than any sound I've heard from a puzzle). 2nd layer is very smooth. 3rd layer has a bit more friction. One of the tips is stiffer than the others. It doesn't really have an alignment mechanism.

Spoiler: Pics

It's pretty.

Got mine today. Fantastic puzzle with nice consistent movement. No clicking mech unfortunately and a bit over lubed.
