Yeah, Kevin said Yuxin is coming out with a new 7x7 that is really good.

Maybe he will show something interesting at 5:00PM PST on Friday 4/13

Kevin Hays, in the update mentioned above, announced the release of a new lineup of "Hays" big cubes from Yuxin. Only the 7x7, the "Hays 7", was announced but he said they were doing an entire line of cubes. Presumably that means 5x5 and 6x6 cubes, too, maybe 4x4. The 7x7 will come in both magnetic and non-magnetic versions and is due for release at the end of May.

What about the cube Sion is making? I don’t think that’ll come out that soon, but it is upcoming.

Yes. it will be coming out before 2020, hopefully. maybe early mid 2019-ish? That's my estimate.

I want to just let you know, I already have the files for the third (technically fourth if you count the 2016 prototype) of the 3v1.

I plan on finding a 3d printing service that can print out something with a more high quality finish that is similar to a final product. However, it will be a little tough trying to attain the funding for a single print of the 3v1 prototype iteration 3.

Interesting mechanism (very similar to YLM). And color scheme (different from YLM).

Cheaper than non-magnetic Huanglong.

Is there any chance the Hays line of "big cubes" will includes sizes larger than 7x7 or are we pretty sure it will strictly be WCA sizes?

It's just gonna be 5-7.

Interesting idea.

Kevin Hay's sell's his WR 7x7 single cube for charity. It would be a unrealeased prototype WR cube. The first ever sub 2 7x7 solve.

Interesting mechanism

Even more interesting - ball bearings inside the corners (at 1:03)
