I've purchesed it on lightake.com.
I got for a month.

My review in Polish but I write here main features:
- the main change is a building of corners. They are no longer build of 3 pieces.
- good shades of stickers. In white version they are brighter (for example yellow).
- nice corner cutting etc.
- occasionally lockups, but it disappears after breaking in
- very stable
- nice clicky sound but some people hate it
- rolling pops happen sometimes due to my turning style
- the cube is harder in feeling than thunderclap v1

In my opinion 9/10.

I have had the Thunderclap V2 for about a month now, I know they introduced some design changes to the puzzle to improve it. Before this I was the using the Thunderclap v1 as my main and it may just be because I have set them up slightly differently but I think the V2 just has a different feel, its more clacky and slightly better corner cutting, but I wouldn't say it is necessarily a better cube in my opinion. Then again it might just be personal preference and I'm more used to the original and it's just down to personal preference.

I'll add my review on the cube here as well.
I received the cube from Lightake.com about three days before I filmed the video.

I got one and I love it when i have lube in it, now it is dry up and my lube is still coming and it sucks

I've listened to reviews from both sides. I really like the sound and feel of the cube, it's really satisfying to me.
The only problem is that other people don't like the sound.

I know it's been a while. I want to magnetize this cube and I don't know how to open the corner. Do you guys know how?

The corner is a 5-piece mechanism, similar to that of The Valk & the X-Man Tornado. Unfold (unravel?) a paperclip and put it into the hole where the first corner piece is to take it out. Then, the four remaining edge pieces can be separated. I read this on a website, but I don't remember the original source.

The v1 is fantastic when magnetised. I've done 5 so far.

I don't know if I should get a Thunderclap V2 or a MF3RS.

I have had the Thunderclap V2 for about a month before buying the Air I have now. My thunderclap was sow at first, almost as slow as Rubiks brand. However after breaking in and tensioning it became extremely fast , as well as having almost full corner cutting. However the edges are weak and split easily.
