New V-cube

[asportking]

"The new cube works like Swiss clock. To be released in January. We are very excited!"

This was a quote from V-cube's facebook page (link here, although you might not be able to see it if you haven't liked the page). I'm not sure if they're going to announce it on their website as well, but either way, there's going to be a new v-cube released in January.

Personally, I don't think that the cube (unless it's an 8x8 or bigger) will be that big of a deal. While the v-cube mechanism for the 3x3 and 4x4 may have made a great cube a few years ago, now, with all the Dayan 3x3s and Shengshou 4x4s, I don't know if the cube will make that much of an impact.

Awesome. Sucks that it probably won't be a 3x3 or 4x4, but w/e

you really shouldn't make random statements without any evidence.

Why do you say that? I would have thought that a 3x3 or a 4x4 would be more likely. Bigger cubes like 9x9s and 11x11s don't have as much appeal to non-cubers than 3x3s and 4x4s, so it seems more logical for them to make smaller cubes.

Swiss Clock?

Is there something I am not getting?

It's just a metaphor; it means that it works well.

Curse me for thinking to literally.

Maybe its an 8x8. They could stick it to ShenShou if it is!

I hope it's not an 8x8...imagine a V-6 straight out of the box, except with even more pieces.

I wouldnt really mind modding since its an 8x8!

I have fully disassembled my teraminx, an 8x8 will be nothing.

I also thought they meant the mechanism was similar to the mechanism of a Swiss Clock.

I would buy it if it was a 3x3 or 4x4; but, if it was an 8x8 or up, then I wouldn't get it, due to the fact, that I don't have a 6x6 yet.

I thought they meant the cube was like a Swiss Rubik's Clock:fp. I'll probably only buy it if it's a 3x3.

I can totally see it being released on the 30th of January

I just want to see pics, and I'll be happy. v-cube 1x1 gogogo

I'm betting it's some sort of an improvement of a current v-cube.

Even better an improvement on only the 5x5. -____-

The metaphor about the Swiss Clock in my eyes means its very complex, works great, but is very small in size. I won't expect anything larger then a 4x4. I probably won't be getting this around June/July when I buy a new V-Cube set.

 

[thackernerd]

I really hope it's the 8x8!

Dammit. I thought it would be a new V-Cube Clock

Are you implying that you have super-secret inside information?

Hopefully there won't be misalignment problems.

I didn't make any actual claim, due to my lack of evidence.
