Dino Cube first mass-produced version had pictures of dinosaurs depicted on each piece, which led to the adoption of the puzzle's current name of "Dino Cube". It is not known what the puzzle had been called before this dinosaur version was introduced. The later versions, however, adopted the practice of using standard single-colour stickers, in common with most other twisty puzzles. The Dino Cube is a twisty puzzle in the shape of a cube. It consists of 12 movable pieces, all of which are located on the edges of the cube. The puzzle can be thought of as twisting around its corners:
V-Cube 8 is to first pair the edges, and then the centers. This, too, is vulnerable to the parity errors described above. Other methods solve the cube by solving a cross and the centers, but not solving any of the edges and corners not needed for the cross, then the other edges would be placed similar to the 3x3 Fridrich method. Some methods are designed to avoid the parity errors described above. For instance, solving the corners and edges first and the centers last would avoid such parity errors. Once the rest of the cube is solved, any permutation of the center
