Does any one know where you can buy a Rubik's studio, I mean over the internet, i know cube for you sells them but is that really as cheap as they get?
the current studio cubes arne not suitable for speedcubing.
the new one will be pretty good, it comes with arched center pieces (the previous version came with flat center pieces) and the screw+spring is similar to/the same as the screw+spring in a type C diy (I disassembled the prototype I borrowed from the studio). however, I think it will need a core replacement, because the studio cores are wide -> more friction.
I think they will be available in toy stores in two weeks, they'll cost around 11-13 dollars
