Which VCube are you most anticipating?

[Mike Hughey]

pshhh..of course he is...that'd only take: (approx.)

2-1 min
3-4 mins
4-15 mins
5-25 mins
6-40 mins
7-1.2 hours
8-2 hours
9-3 hours
10-4 hours
11-5 hours

so about 17 hours?

That's probably a little ambitious; the bigger cubes would take longer than that in a relay. Your numbers are about right until you get to 8x8x8 and above, but then I think they're a little low. Factor in exhaustion, and this would probably be close to 24 hours.

I suspect this one is actually out of my range to do, at least normally. But it MIGHT be possible to consider doing this by memorizing over a span of several days or even a week, and then sit down on a later day and solve them all. That might just be manageable.

But I probably will insist on working up to it. So I'd first need to get 2-6 (which sadly, I still haven't done successfully), then 2-7, then 2-8, then 2-9, then 2-10, and then finally I could try 2-11. So don't hold your breath - all you youngsters are likely to be grandparents before I finally get around to this one.

Well, lets just hope you do it before you and we all die.

I think the V4 will suck. It's gonna be clicky and locky like the V6. Granted, I'll get one, but I want to be on record that they won't be good cubes.

I voted for 3x3. Design seems interesting.

 

[EmersonHerrmann]

You might be right Hadley, but we cannot predict what the V4 will be like since we have only seen one even-cubied cube

Just curious, what exactly is the timeline of the release of V-Cubes? Also, is there any specific date for the next cube to come along, or even a window of time? Any word on which cube it will be?

 

[jcuber]

Look at my posts, and there is no timeline or even an estimate, but I believe that at least one will be released by the end of this year. I have no data to support this except the fact that the molds for the v-9 are close to/have been completed.

 

[toast]

3x3. I'd like to see the design in real life.

 

[soccerking813]

It will definitely be very interesting.
I wonder how much money a full set of V-cubes will cost, 2x2-11x11. Just the shipping alone would be alot.

 

[JTW2007]

11 blah blah blah... too short... why is there even a limit?

 

[skwishy]

I am definitely most excited about the 11. Big cubes take a while to solve, but that is why i like them so much. There are just times when I really need to get away from life and by solving a big cube I am able to forget about life and feel happy, if only for a few minutes.

 

[Three Days Grace Fan]

3x3, 4x4, and 2x2 just because i only do smaller cubes

i have to agree with you on that. anything bigger than a 4x4 takes too long to solve. personally i want i 3X3.

 

[Kian]

Ugh...nah...my 7's is big enough for me...I would never solve anything larger.

I said the same thing about 5's when the 6 and 7 came out. granted, I don't own a 6 or 7 yet, but I'm excited to try them.

 

[jcuber]

Anyone have estimations on what a good (nakajima, cohen, suhei, akkersdijk to name a few) 2-11 relay will take? (time)

I guess about 25-30 minutes.

 

[Faz]

v4. Nuff said.

 

[mati rubik]

4x4x4 whitout click mecanism

 

[idpapro]

v-4, in the "blueprints" it diddnt look like there wold be any kind of clickey mechanism

Where is your evidence for this?

If you look on hi-games its evident that Michal Halczuk would be by far the fastest. Also, 25-30 minutes is a stupid estimate. Think- 6x6 takes roughly twice the time of a 5x5, 7x7 takes a but less than twice the time of 6x6, and so on. Even the total of all of Michal's best times on Hi-games is still 27 minutes for 2-10, factor in and 11x11 and the fact that its physically impossible to turn that fast and you are looking at 45-60 minutes at least.

I am most looking forward to the V-2, it has an interesting and very stable looking design. I think if you fixed one of the pieces to the core, like on ES's, you'd have quite a fine cube on your hands.

I'm not so sure about the V-3 and V-4 though, I'd definitely want to try one before buying. I think the V-3, even if adjustable, would take a while to break in to a point of usability, much like the V-5.

 

[jcuber]

I was thinking a few years from now, I should have stated that.

I really want to be the youngest person to blindfold solve an 11x11

haha, it'll be a LONG time til anybody actually does 11x11 BLD, if it ever happens ...
