Manufacturer of the Type-D Cube, also known as YUGA.

== Products ==

=== Type D ===
Also called 'GuoYou', [http://cube4you.com/index.php?gOo=goods_search_list.dwt&gcat=33&gtype= Type D cubes] ship fully assembled and [[sticker]]ed. The color scheme varies, but generally they are stickered in either the [[Japanese color scheme]] or a mirrored version of the [[Western color scheme]]. The original stickers are generally not as robust as most vinyl stickers, which is why [[Cube4You]] ships a set of better stickers with each cube. Recent Type D orders came stickered with nicer vinyl stickers(similar to storebought stickers) in the Western color scheme. Type D cubes rarely [[pop]], unlike [[Type A]] cubes. They also are decent at cutting corners. The argument as to which is better for speedcubing, however, has not been settled. Some people recommend replacing the Type D [[core]] with a Type A core. It is also recommended to try a hybrid of this cube with [[Type C]] [[cubie]]s.

=== Different Types ===
There are two different types of Type-D cubes. Generation one Type-D's come in many different colors: Pink, Green and Black. The generation 2 Type-D's, also known as Type-D II are white. The stickers that come with the Type-D II are somewhat textured and do not peel off easily. The spinning is very smooth, rarely locks up, cuts corners but sometimes pops if spinning too violently. Each [[cubie]] is fully closed and has caps that rarely fall off. If they fall off, to fix it, just simply place the cap back on and push down.
