When you scramble it you end up with several seperate wavy lines. In it's solved state there is just one wavy line encompassing the whole cube. Probably the hardest 3x3 sticker mod there is!

Rare Mozhi Magic

Solves differently from a regular magic as the seperate rings and the linked rings are back to front. Also one of the panels on the linked rings is flipped the wrong way around, so it's impossible to properly solve.

Rare Auldey Q-Borg Molecule / Atom 2x2

Very stiff to turn out of the box, feels as though the tension is too tight. Now that it's broken in it's a bit better but still pretty stiff. It's still a very fun puzzle though, and looks very cool too imo.

This is in a different configuration from my other siamese mirror blocks, and because of that the blocking on this is way way more difficult.

QJ UFO

At first this turned really badly, the tensions were uneven, some layers were too loose, it would lock up a lot too. Now that I've tightened the tensions and broke it in a little it is much better, it'll still lock up sometimes though but not as often, and will feel catchy whenever I turn any of the layers. Still, at least it's usable now where as before it was so bad it was unusable.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETHDu99opLc


QJ Megaminx.

Would lock up sometimes at first, but I took it apart, cut off the flashing, and pushed the caps in more on the inside of the pieces. Now it turns great.

Edison 3x3

These cubes come from Korea and are now quite rare.

Was supposed to be a fairly good speed cube back in the late 2000's....

It turned too stiffly out of the box, and it came with the stand you see in the picture.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETHDu99opLc


HeShu 3x3

Very crap cube. Looks very cheap, feels very cheap and light, is held together by plastic rivets rather than screws (this means you cannot tension it), locks up a lot, and a lot of the stickers are slanted and / or uncentred

This has a weird colour scheme. A lot of people don't like different colour schemes, but I like them, it's something new and different.

Has a rail system like the mf8 Square 1 v1...

It turns quite nicely.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2TsLd9HynU


mf8 Square 1 v2

Was very stiff when I first got it, and came with a pink 'Cube Club' stand.

This has a kind of ball core, the core isn't really a ball but the rails are in a kind of a ball shape....

After lubing it turns pretty decently

Eastsheen 4x4

It's not too bad, but it doesn't corner cut at all



Gear Cube v1

I don't know what the brand of this is. Stickers started peeling very quickly, and the cube is stiff to turn as well so you can't do finger tricks with it.

It's also very simple and straight forward to solve.

It's not that great, catches a lot


Cubetwist DIY Bandage Kit 3x3

Cube turns nicely, great value for money as you can make lot's of different bandaged cubes from this, the only problem is that if you push the tiles down onto the cube fully they're really difficult to get off.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tUMKxuszBc


YJ Eight Pointed Star

Very simple to solve if you have the flat faces as the top and bottom faces. Orientate it differently though so the pointed faces are at the top and bottom and it's a bit more of a challenge. Puzzle turns great. You also never need to put the corners into the first layer because as soon as you've made the cross they're already there.

Cubetwist 5 layer Siamese Mirror Block

Fun to solve and looks cool too.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSUtchYnvro


Mozhi Pyramid / Half Star

Fun 3x3 shape mod. At first this was unbelievably stiff and would sometimes not even turn, I couldn't adjust the tension because there are no screws, just rivets. So I just broke it in and lubed it and surprisingly it turns way better now, and I can even do finger tricks on it a lot of the time.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlALAtSU9ko

Lanlan 2x2


Diansheng 3x3

I think this is 60mm, it's bigger than regular sized 3x3's. It's pretty good, it doesn't really compete with the best speedcubes, it does feel quite blocky, but I like it and I enjoy solving it.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mk9hSXaI3c


Shengshou 4x4

Catches internally


Dayan Taiyan

Supposedly it's a limited edition in this colour.

With some cube control this cube feels pretty nice.......

It was very hard for me to get this tensioned properly. It does overspin, but if I tighten the tension anymore than what it is, even by just a little then the cube suddenly feels horrible to use.

Multi coloured Cube4You 3x3x5

I'm sure the people at Dinodirect where I bought it from, or the people at Cube4You made this out of several coloured 3x3x5 DIY kits, so for example this would've been made from a pink 3x3x5 DIY kit, a blue 3x3x5 DIY kit, and a yellow 3x3x5 DIY kit.

This cube turns really fast and smooth and has a nice swishy sound to it, it corner cuts really well as well....

The solve is more easier than the regular 3x3x5, but you do get a couple of parity's that you don't get on the regular one, one of them is the Fisher cube parity where you can't make the cross on the last layer.

I guess this has two solve states, the one that you see in the picture, and one where the colours of each layer alternate, so for example from top to bottom each layer would be pink, yellow, blue, pink, yellow. You can see it's other solved state in my Misc album.

East Sheen 2x2

As a speedcube it's really bad, but then I don't think it's ment to be a speedcube. As a normal cube it's okay.

I know that it's an old 2x2 and pales in comparison to the latest and greatest 2x2's, but even for it's time, when compared to the Lanlan 2x2 which was out around the same time as this, it's really bad. I honestly don't know how people who have tried the Lanlan 2x2 can...... say that the East Sheen one is also good. Maybe it's just me, maybe I just need to have better cube control, because you do need to have this almost 100% perfectly aligned for it to turn as it has pretty much 0 corner cutting.

Gear Cube v2

Turns really nicely.

YJ VVGOO-I Glow In The Dark

I think these were only made as glow in the dark cubes, it seems a bit more catchy than the VVGOO-II cubes.

YJ Star

Very cool 3x3 shape mod, has the corner parity on the last layer that you get on the YJ Heart. Puzzle is a little stiff to turn though.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wO5DQ2zCiw

 YJ VVGOO-III

It's bigger than regular sized 3x3's and it's pretty good. It has textured stickers, has a buttery feel, and is much better than the much more common YJ VVGOO-II's and YJ VVGOO-I's. The model number is yj0115

Mozhi Heart Linked Lock / X Cube

Very cheap quality, but a very cool puzzle at the same time, it's basically a 3x3 shape mod, and out of all of my 3x3 shape mods I find this to be the hardest.

Unfortunatley because of some of the stickers overhanging, they will catch each other when turning the puzzle which causes peeling.

LanLan 2x3x3

You'd think this would have a lot of similarities with the 3x3 when solving this, but most of the solve is completely different.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APUYkI-Ke9s


mf8 2x3x4

Has internal bandaging so not truely fully functional, I did recieve some internal pieces with it though so I can modify it into a fully functional 2x3x4. I can solve the internal bandaging but I can't solve the cube itself at all.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwkdPgFyYys

 Ayi's 3 Layer Cheese

I'm pretty sure this was made by just one guy called Ayi, and for that he's done really well, much better than what i or most other people could do, even though the quality of the puzzle isn't that great. Sometimes pieces will pop out when you turn it and a ball bearing will fly out, and the rainbow stickers start peeling straight away.

I don't know how to solve this yet.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFPOCgu3R9s


Cube4You 3x3x6

Cool puzzle which is difficult to scramble because of it's extra bandaging. The extra bandaging also makes the solve completely differen't from how you would think it'd be as well.

Mozhi Pyramorphix

This is a 2x2 shape mod, I don't know how to solve this yet.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8ivwfjydgw


He Shu pinwheel / windmill

The turning is pretty good, but the stickers are bubbly.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNEXU-4PgH8


Shengshou God Of Freedom Super / Crazy 2x2x4

Two pieces fell off this a couple of minutes into playing with it, but I super glued them back into place and now the puzzle is fine. The circle bits are really hard to turn but I'm hoping they'll get better with some breaking in and lube. It's surprisingly very easy to solve. This puzzle has some cool shape shifting.

Cubetwist Silver / Mirror Square 1

Really nice looking puzzle but I don't know how to solve it yet. It may looked solved in the photo but it actually isn't, the stickers have lines on them.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpwQsFmAu3w


Diansheng Domino Dice 2x3x3

Really cool looking puzzle.

Paint starts to wear off quite easily though once you've had it for a while. I'm going to need to put some sort of clear protective coverant on this.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cBEVpdGLa4



Delida or Wei Chi International 2x3x3 Chinese Knot

Very cool looking puzzle and fun to solve too. These come in 3 different sizes, keychain, medium, and large, I think this is the large.

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1Mk9hSXaI3c



Pepsi Tile Sliding Can

Really cool puzzle. You can pop the top off to stash things inside. I think this is from the 80's or 90's.


Diansheng 56mm 3x3

Nice puzzle

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mk9hSXaI3c


Mini Diansheng 3x3

Nice puzzle

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZR4Eq_Oz14


Diansheng Mahjong Glow In The Dark 3x3

Nice looking puzzle, turns like shit though


Vintage Ford 15 Puzzle

I think this is from the 60's or 70's, apparently this was in a car show room back then.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPGFv_7_hSE


Rubik's World

2x2 shape mod. This turned horribly at first, but I fixed it by using memyselfandpi's tutorial on how to fix the bad turning, it now turns a lot better. You can spin the Earth around while it's in the stand, and you can take it out too.

Keychain Fancy Animal 8 Puzzle


Ideal Missing Link 1981

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh60rGA4ubQ


Link Puzzler

A Missing Link KO. This seems to be indentical to the Missing Link, except there's not card on either end, and in place of the yellow links are gold ones.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv9uVmMpBD0


VeryPuzzle Snow Mystery

Nice looking but very boring to solve, it's not really a puzzle to be honest. This can also be used as a stand for really big puzzles which is the only reason why I've kept it.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oTbXG_FDcc


Mozhi stand


Cube4You stand


Shengshou stand


Cubetwist Stand


Cubetwist Stand


Rubik's stand


Diansheng stand


YJ stand

I love how the different colours change on the writing depending on the angle you're holding it


Ling Ao Glow In The Dark Stand



3x Lightake pouches

To see what the other side looks like take a look in my Misc Pics Of My Puzzles album
Interesting how they have the Cubetwist logo on them




Orange pouch

Seems like really nice quality. I got this from zCube when I ordered my Lanlan Squished Skewb


PUZL.co.uk pouch


Cubetwist pouch

Similar to the Lightake pouches, it has the 'Dismantle it and try' with the logo on the back just like the Lightake pouches too


Ling Ao Magic


Ling Ao Chess Super Master Magic

Very cool puzzle, unfortunately though the pieces of paper inbetween the plastic tiles have wrinkled, I think this may be down to a combination of the tightness of the strings going around them and high humidity.


Ghosthand Master Magic

Unfortunatley even though it was brand new, when I took it out of the box the card tiles were damaged cosmetically

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFuIafQ4HRo


Guojia Master Magic
I got this brand new and as soon as I tok it out of the box I noticed that pretty much every plastic tile had scratches on them.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zR053eLeV0


Custom Master Magic

This was a Silver Ghosthand Master Magic, but when I was re-stringing it I accidently damaged one of the paper tiles, so I though why not chuck them and make my own custom ones? So, I downloaded a PDF file of the rings, I changed the background colour from black to a light cream, just because I thought it'd look nice and would be something different. I then printed them out, c......ut them out, and placed them into the master magic. Unfortunately though the pieces of paper inbetween the plastic tiles have wrinkled, I think this may be down to a combination of the tightness of the strings going around them and high humidity.

CubeTwist Triamese Mirror Blocks

This is a 7 layer puzzle made up of 3 Mirror Block cubes.

To fully solve it 100% you need to also solve this like a picture cube as there are lines on the stickers

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi5qoLOF4Pw


Cube4You Cubic 3x3x4

This turned horribly at first, but I kept on using it realising that because the pieces were a tight fit, they were grinding away some of the plastic which should help it to turn better (inside there was plastic dust). The turning was actually getting worse though, I guess it was because of the plastic dust inside. After a couple of days of using it, I took it apart, brushed... off the plastic dust, and put it back together. The turning had improved, but not much. Since I have a C4Y cubiod 3x3x4 that turns great, I was wondering which parts of this cubic puzzle were making it turn bad. I decided to swap part around between the two puzzles to see if I could narrow it down. Suprisingly, after swapping some parts around this puzzle started turning great, and the other puzzle still turned great. After putting the pieces back again, it still continued to turn really good, I've no idea why. The turning isn't perfect on all the layers, but I'd say it's good enough to be able to actually class this as a speed cube now.

Tower Of Babel

Very cool puzzle, you create a gap by presing in one of the balls at the bottom and sliding another ball over it. I can't solve the last two rows.

Shensghou Crazy 2x2

A little different and a little tricker to solve at the end from the 2x2 part of the Shengshou Crazy 2x2x4.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U7i7Uo4CMQ


Cube4You 3x3x7

I think the solve is exactly the same as the 3x3x5 only there's more of it.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U7i7Uo4CMQ


Hungarian Rings

This is the closest I can get to solving it.

This was brand new and sealed when I got it and it was made in 1982. This has a manufacturing error, as there should be 9 yellow balls, 9 blue balls, 10 black balls, and 10 red balls. But on this there are 8 yellow balls, 9 blue balls, 11 black balls, and 10 red balls. I'm not sure how common this kind of mistake is or whether it's really rare.

Pussy 80's Calculator 15 Puzzle

Really cool looking puzzle, reminds me of how calculators and other electronics looked in the 80's, in fact i'm sure this is from the 80's.


Dayan Wheel Of Wisdom

Very cool puzzle but it does catch and pop sometimes. You solve it like a 3x3 first and then you solve the wheels by intuition, kinda feels like I'm putting a jigsaw puzzle together

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JppXAp6WLWE


Mozhi stand

This is what I got with the Mozhi Skewb Ball


Mozhi Skewb Ball

The red stand came with it too.

Even though I can solve a regular skewb, I cannot solve the last part of this, it's hard to know what situation I've got.

YJ Mastermorphix

Interesting 3x3 shape mod. This is basically a 3x3 version of the Pyramorphix.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m6n8sv5GkU


1992 Fun Turns Diet Coke Sliding Tile Puzzle Can

You may notice in the picture that it's not 100% solved, as some of the tiles that have just diagonal lines on them aren't matching each other.

Great puzzle, but the squares are quite hard to move when moving them vertically, when moving them either to the left or right you have to move the whole ring.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d3Av0MQ9_M


Unbranded 36 Piece Snake

This is held together with what looks like fishing wire rather than rivets, so I'm not sure if it'll be that durable or not, as whenever I hear of these snakes breaking it's always the ones that are held together by wire.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7JQpZL0aV8


Mozhi Watchtower

Not many places seem to sell these. This is a 3x3 shape mod, and I think the Mozhi 3x3 shape mods are my favorite 3x3 shape mods.

The puzzle is quite difficult because of all the blocking that occurs.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2PcfVQg0og


Guojia keychain 3x3

Smiley faces are painted on and are not stickers. The cube doesn't corner cut at all and the turning is pretty stiff.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBch72V1b5A


Calvin's Square 1

Turns really badly and the logo's on the stickers started wearing out straight away. Some turn great others don't. When I popped off one of the caps it said mf8 on the other side.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBch72V1b5A


mf8 Black & White Column

I got stickers with this, but I haven't stickered it as I'd like to solve it the way it is, and to be honest because of the fact that it's in black & white means it just doesn't look right when stickered IMO.

I guess this has two solve states, the solved state that you see now and a checker board pattern....

Solving it so it looks like how it looks in the picture is disappointingly easy, but I'm finding it very hard to solve it into a checker board pattern up to now.

The turning isn't that great. But I think it's a very cool looking puzzle.

Zhisheng Egg

3x3 shape mod, it's quite tricky because a lot of the pieces are the same as each other, and a lot of other pieces look very similar.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBFpmIh3g9Q


Mozhi Pineapple

3x3 shape mod. It's a really nice looking puzzle, but it solves exactly like a 3x3.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l30c0mEBms


QJ 2 Layer Super Square 1

Unfortunately this has a design flaw, the edges should be exactly half the size ot the corners, but they aren't, instead the edges are too small and the corners are too big, which means when you get a lot of edges or corners on one side, the edges are really loose and there's big spaces between them, and the corners are really tightly packed together which makes it hard to turn and it pushes the puzzle apart, it feels as though the puzzle could break or fall apart when this happens.

Limited Edition Calvin's Square 1

Turns better than my regular Calvin's Square 1.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OFZo_PFKl0


MF8 Super Square 1

Doesn't have the best turning.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBFpmIh3g9Q


Mozhi Stick Cube

3x3 Shape mod which is actually more easier to solve than a 3x3.

Very nice puzzle. As you can see I cannot solve this yet.

Rare Stickerless Diansheng 2 Layer Super Square 1 Dart / Star / Snowflake

I don't know how to solve this, the turning is quite a bit stiffer than the stickered one for some reason, and I'm guessing it's more simple to solve than the stickered one, although I'm unable to solve it yet.

Unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQUv0O7RNsM


Rare Diansheng 2 Layer Super Square 1 Dart / Star / Snowflake

I don't know how to solve this, the turning is quite a lot looser than than the stickerless one for some reason, but it's not too loose, and I'm guessing it's more harder to solve than the stickerless one. I'm unable to solve it yet.
