Upcoming 3x3s

[UncleFrank]

Well this new brand and cube completely appeared out of nowhere:View attachment 28627View attachment 28629View attachment 28630View attachment 28628
I wonder if it will be any good? Looks like the earliest I could have them in stock would be around 20-25th January

Haitun Cube (Dolphin cube) is the brand.
I think it's called the Waverider V1, but I've seen another post on reddit call it the ZhanLang V1.

Ok, that matches it up now, my supplier was calling it the Haitun Waverider v1, apparently it will come in standard and flagship versions initially and later a pioneer version (copying qiyis naming!)

To maximise the profits, I really think MOYU should sell the 20 magnet ball core as a kit also, a lot of owners will not but another cube just for that, but they will likely spend some money on the kit.

Yup... I am waiting for the release of the watch strap as a standalone

There are actually a number of brand new design features, different thickness in the plastic of the pieces, based on strength requirement, those 3 tiny magnets at the base of each corner piece that are said to make the magnetic effect less bumpy, and some intriguing design of how the magnets inside the pieces are positioned. However, it remains to be seen how well these new features function.

Me too!!! That's exciting!!

Wait for the special edition "watch" cube holder and wrist straps, in 6 colours and with tiny LEDs that flash also in 6 different colours. . The watch has a USB port to charge the battery.

If someone has WRM V9 and the expensive super weilong, can you confirm whether the 20 magnets WRM V9 is simply the WRM fitted with super weilong's core?
I suspect MoYu simply gutted the not-so-easy-to-sell super for the 20 magnets core, to fit their overstocked WRM V9 pieces.

I suspect you worry too much. These are made of plastic, the initial cost is high, but the manufacturing is not. They wont worry too much on their existing stock.
It might be hard for many to imagine, but opening up everything and take out the core for other product, usually cost more than you can salvage.

There will be 3 versions of the Haitun Waverider V1. The Standard and the Flagship versions are already on the Pre-order page on The Cubicle and also on SpeedCubeShop. The top version will be the "Pioneer" version and it will have Maglev, based on what I heard. Sounds like QiYi Tornado version names.

HaiTun Waverider V1 3x3 (Flagship)

The Waverider V1 is a new 3x3 speedcube by the emerging brand Haitun Cube. This Flagship version features traditional corner-edge magnets as well as little (but surprisingly strong) magnets embedded into the feet of each piece, creating a dynamic magnet positioning system. It also has an easy to...

Very happy about this. Wish more modern cubes had this option.

Waverider (no ballcore) is now available on Aliexpress. Around the price of YS3M BC (local price)

 

[fiftyniner]

56mm.... No BC...found only standard and flagship version...

 

[Dan the Beginner]

56mm. Unfortunately I may still have to buy it this time, even though I normally avoid 56mm no matter how good it is, because this Haitun seems to have something really new. Intriguing. I may wait until the Pioneer version is available first. I hope it is slower like the Guhong, when compared to the Spring version.

There was a time that 57mm was the standard and I still have some of them, including my Moyu Aolong V2.
