MoYu (魔域) WeiLong (威龍) new mechanism 3x3x3 speed cube (20 TESTERS WANTED!)

The SS 4x4 also has caps on the corner pieces, is that illegal now too? I also think this is crap. Until I see something specific about the Weilong from a WCA delegate from the US, I'm not even thinking about this.
 
I can. I'm not sure how you press a cap together more? It's already tightly fitted together? The way I tell is feel along the edges, and one is likely to have a bump. Thanks that one is the one with the cap. It is possible, trust me.

I can feel the bump, but on which side of the bump is the cap? I have absolutely no idea
 
I've got some cubes where the corners are not exactly equal, I forget the maker. I noticed that this was a violation. That is, on the corner pieces, some of the triangular surfaces next to the edge pieces are flat and some just have the outline of the triangular region.

To fix this, I'll glue a piece of black plastic in the hole and sand it down. When I'm done, you won't be able to distinguish the modified ones from the unmodified ones.
 
Okay, Here are two different corners. Where is the advantage?

I guess the 'problem' could be, that (on the first pic) there is a 'line' between blue and orange, but not between blue and yellow.
You could feel with your fingernail where the line is, and know it's between blue and orange... or blue and white on the other pic ... or between two other colors of the six other corner...

I don't think this is an advantage or anything that could be a problem.
 
From what I can tell from Marcel's pictures (thank you for those), there should be no reason to not allow the cube. I have a F2 and the corners are made with the exact same design, and there was no issue with the F2. And on the F2 the edge caps are also not symmetrical. There is no reason this cube should be banned.
 
Alright, I got mine, lubed it thoroughly (pieces and the core) and assembled it. I have to say that this cube is extraordinary. It cuts anything, its very fast but still somehow its quite controllable. I havent set tensions at all, but it cuts 45 like its nothing. This just beat my milky zhanchi. It would seem that 57mm zhanchi stickers are the way to go with this puzzle as the hole are pretty much exactly in the same spots and of the same size.

I will be posting a video with some pictures and some testing in this post, or you can go to my youtube channel through my profile and look for the newest video once I finish uploading.
