Ok, I received my Lightake order today and got a LanLan Super Floppy Cube and a Pillowed MasterMorphinx. (ZZ Brand)
3x3x1 Super Floppy Cube:
Solving: Very easy, my 6 year old sister can do it. Although it shape shifts, you only need 3-4 moves to get it back to the origanal shape.
Stickers:The typical LanLan color scheme. Light Blue and Light green on top and bottom, dark grey and light grey, and red and yellow. They are the dot stickers and the ones on the inside chip after 1-2 solves.
Turning:Very smooth and it glides very well. Because this doesn't use the typical Floppy Cube mech, it turns extremely well right out of the box.
Cons: May be too easy for some people. .The stickers are terrible and you should replace them. The puzzle comes pre-lubed and thus, makes the whole puzzle feel greasy and slimy. The stickers on the inside are also covered in the lube. But, on a side note, this makes the puzzle feel like a BEAUTY!
Pillowed MasterMorphinx:
Solving: Essentially, this is just a 3x3 cube in a different form. But, it is much more confusing that most puzzles. You have to hold it at an angle to solve it. You cant hold a face in front of you or it wont turn the way you want it to.
Stickers: My version has the 1 color, grey, as it's stickers. The stickers are textured and look like they have thread running through it. (Thats the texture) Very nice quality so far.
Turning: The turning is much better than I anticipated it to be. Its a bit rough at certain points, but it still turns very nice. There are also "center" caps and you can adjust the tension from there. Very good turning and it even cuts corners a bit.
Cons: Mine is 1 colored, and most people wish to have the 4-colored one. But stickers can easily be bought at CubeSmith.com.
