New MoYu 5x5x5

[BrianJ]

why has not the cube released yet??....i was really looking to buying this cube.

Same with most other cubers. Anyway, just by searching the forum for a few minutes, you can find out why the 5x5 isn't out yet.

I'll preface this by saying this is just speculation: Is this the Moyu 5x5 in these pictures:

Obviously the massive 3x3 isn't it, but there's a stickerless 5x5 in some of these pictures in the Moyu pink shades. As far as I know there is no other sticker less 5x5 than the Diansheng out at the moment, and that only comes in darker shades. I'm not convinced, but I'm not ruling it out. The holes look a lot smaller than in the CAD diags we've seen, but that doesn't necessarily say a lot.

Here's a 4x4 with similar shades to the 5x5 you pointed out:

The 5x5 in those pictures may just be an upcoming cube from that company.

Good shout. Looks like the right kind of holes too. Mystery solved. Probably for the best, as I think people would be wanting better rev-corner cutting than that cube looks to allow.

Every time someone resurrects this thread, a kitten dies. I (and I'm sure many others) always think it's moyu at first, or at least new news.

The MoYu 5x5x5 is like Bigfoot. I've seen blurry images and heard rumors, but never anything concrete.

 

[aHappyAsian]

I swear like every post about a new cube is either I'm so excited or why isn't this out yet

 

[DeeDubb]

I'm so excited! Why isn't this out yet?

 

[Ollie]

So no chance of buying one and breaking it in before Euros?

inb4 it's disappointing anyway

Have you considered proving your plot twist Ollie?

Those images aren't THAT blurry!

Also, there are moyu pamphlets showing the internals of the 5x5.

Corner piece in the size of a standard 3x3 - kinda big.

This.. my heart stops for a second lol. Why I so exite for 5x5 >.<

It says it's gonna get released at end of July. Hope they release it before Nationals

I vote no more posting in this thread to ask if anyone knows any new information. Only post if you have new information. Everytime this thread pops up I keep thinking "ZOMG Has it been announced!?" Stop messing with my heart speedsolving.com!

Seriously this thread should only be posted in if there is NEW! news about the Moyu 5x5x5. I keep getting excited..

only 12 more days to see if that's true

 

[sk8erman41]

5x5x5 and 6x6x6 may be on sale on the end of July.

<--- from the 6x6 and 7x7 thread

It sounds to me like they are building hype. I don't think that it will be here in 12 days, but I would rather them take their time and make a quality product than have them rush something with issues. Its going to be a lot harder for the community to accept minor flaws (like the AoLong V1s corner twists) in a cube that is likely to be $30+ Most cubers wouldn't want to buy a V2 with a minor fix a couple weeks later

 

[RobertFontaine]

There are no shortage of people lined up to buy a moyu 5/6/7. The first run will almost certainly sell well. Whether the second will sell well or there will be a v2 is to be seen.
