Honey Copter

It's been a while since I've reviewed one of these Twisty puzzles. After all, I'm rubbish at solving them, but I really do like the variety of designs available, compared to when I started my collection over 10 years ago. The puzzle featured here is called Honey Copter and it's a real beauty.

The puzzle is made by LanLan and it's a shape-mod variation of Oskar's Redi Cube. Each of the six faces features a four-leaf clover and you turn the puzzle not by rotating the faces but by rotating the corners. It makes a real cool effect. The colors are the 6 standard ones you see on most puzzles of this type (blue, red, yellow, white, orange and green).

I couldn't comment of the difficulty since I won't dare shuffling it, unless I get a second copy to mess around. But judging by PuzzleMaster's classification of 8/10, I'd say that for an experienced puzzler, this won't be much of a challenge, but definitely a fun solve.

The movement is smooth, but not speed-solving smooth. Then again, it's not like I'll be speed-solving it any time soon... I like almost everything about the puzzle, but the stickers are just a notch below what I'd consider good quality. They're already showing signs of peeling off from the edges, which is unfortunate. Other than that, it's a great looking puzzle.
