Rubies' brand 4x4 core based explosion

[Sean Lev]

Yesterday, I was playing with my rubiks 4x4 and it began to feel really loose. A few turns later, it exploded like a qj 2x3x3. Upon closer inspection, I discovered one of the triangles had fallen out due to a stripped screw. A little bit of super glue fixed the issue, but I was wondering if I am the only person who's experienced this.

Solution: get an xcube or maru 4x4.

He wasn't looking for a solution.... And yeah, my friend's 4x4 did that

Happened with my miniQJ. Multiple times. Had to get two new cores.

Pretty much, just buy a new cube or a new core. I made a thread like this a few weeks ago.....

yep but try this unscrew all of the screws and glue down all 8 of the triangles

I disagree; Maru 4x4 misaligns, and X-Cube is really expensive.
