Yes. You can read the wca regulations at worldcubeassociation.org

Yes.Too short.

I'm 100% sure that they will always be illegal. Although it is very hard to use the transparency to see colors through the plastic, the potential itself is enough to be considered unfair compared to other "solid" cubes.

Do you know an easy solution to make a transparent cube legal ? Like painting it inside ?

Because mine is a very good cube I wasn't even allowed to use it for multi.

That might work but a better solution would be to just get yourself a legal cube (or three ).

The only way you can use a transparent cube in competition is if all of your stickers have a white backing (all stickers have the same color on the back, so the transparency doesn't reveal anything helpful).

I never knew World Cube Association has a Forum. And I knew that I'm colorblind to transparent.

so the cube4you transparent cube with stock stickers should be legal? The c4y stickers, at least mine, are white on the back.
