Identifying a cube

Hey everyone, so I have a cube that is missing an edge piece. I'm not sure if it's a speedcube or not, but it corner cuts and cornertwists like a regular speedcube. I want to buy a replacement part, but I'm not sure what brand the cube is, so if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

Below are pictures of the mechanism:

Yeah, it's not easy when you start looking for cubes and there are several names for the same model.

The Qiyi Thunderclap/MFG Thunderbolt can also be found as Qiyi Mofangge Leiting(Lei Ting). If your are unsure you can take a look at the packaging. The Thunderbolt/Thunderclap/Lei Ting have a flash on the front left and right beside the window. Here you can see a photo of the stickerless version.

I asume the reason for this mess is, that the company did not provide an english name or at least the romanization of the chinese name. So several retailers come up with their own translation/interpretation which is quite confusing.

The Qiyi Bullfight is listed at different chinese websites as Qiyi MoFangGe DouNiu Magic, the Qiyi Warrior as QY YongShi.

Does this company have a website?

I don't even know

This cube is a white plastic cube, it has strange caps on all of the pieces, the edge pieces look unlike any cube I've seen before, they are very small, almost semi-circle like, they don't go inward like other puzzles, the corner pieces are even harder to explain, I would have pictures but I am posting from an Iphone and I haven't figured out how to do that yet. All of these pieces as hollow. It pops almost every solve unless I have it on very tight tensions, and then it just becomes a hassle to solve because it locks up so much

Pics of the cube will help allot to identify the puzzle.

Is this a real Aosu?

I got an aosu from Amazon and the big internal piece can split into two pieces. Is this normal?
