Appears to be the regular cube, with the addition of custom magnets to go in the cube and then the magnetic numbers to use for FMC.
They need to release just the magnets and magnetic numbers as a kit, without the cube.

They need to release just the magnets and magnetic numbers by themselves as a kit.

Who buys a Flagship Tornado for FMC?!

Ah yes, let me use two 40 dollar cubes in order to use their amazing, speed-optimized performance for an event none other than an hour-long, pencil-scratching, definitely-not-fast event. Incredible business philosophy!

It is smart though, the stickers are annoying to work with and these are reusable.

It really doesn't have to be an decently expensive speedcube though. It would be fine if it was just an rs3m 2020 or something

Yeah, that's the point I'm trying to make. I think that this is a very good idea, I just don't believe it's a good business decision to use expensive cubes as a vehicle for this idea.

I don’t know why, but the cubes look tasty. (eyes up this post)

One of these cubes being the Super RS3M V2 gives strong, "How are we going to get these things out of our inventory?!" vibes.

Possible Gan Sq1 in use in comp

I don't think it is anything other than a GAN SQ1, it does not sound like an MGC and does not look like a Volt V2 or Little Magic. It would make sense to, considering GAN finally made black plastic on a stickerless puzzle with the GAN Megaminx V2.

He is sponsored by Picubeshop and they did just release their MGC Sq1 mods.
But he is also sponsored by Gan, and in the video description he says "Cube: Secret". I don't think he would have said secret for the picube mods since they are already fully released.
More suggestions that it's a Gan.
 
I really don't think that was a Gan squan lol.

The pieces look just like the MGC from the outside. If you look at the misaligned layers, it looks like it has magnetic capsules embedded in the pieces.
This makes me believe it would be a custom mod someone has made, or a diansheng sq1.

Gan is probably still busy with getting 5x5 production going.

The Florian cuts in the middle of the black and white faces are smaller than the MGC, closer in size to the cuts on the Volt V2 or Little Magic, as well as the MGC sounding different, with a higher pitch. But the Little Magic does not sound the same as the cube in the video, being much lower-pitched and softer-sounding, and the Volt V2 has a different shade of green, so we can rule those out. All this points to a new GAN SQ1.
