ShengShou VS MF8

Just curious. I have the big Shengshou *minxs, (Mega, Giga, Tera, Peta),... and on YouTube I see only MF8 and Shengshou *minx's in those big sizes. But looking around online the MF8 Giga, Tera, Petaminxs are out of stock, discontinued, etc.

Did Shengshou just crush them in the marketplace? Were the MF8's really bad in comparison?

I just find it interesting that when it comes to big *minx's Shengshou seems to have no competition.

I wasn't into cubing 7-8 years ago when the MF8's seem to have been around so I don't really know anything about them. I have a couple MF8 brick cuboids that seem fine though. The quality doesn't seem bad.

Just curious about their Giga/Tera/Petaminx ones.

<wish I understood Russian>

I wonder when Yuxin will release the stickerless petaminx.


Their newly released gigaminx is quite good yo.

yeah it really is! And DianSheng is making a magnetic one apparently now, too.
