V-Cube 6 to the internal mechanism, thus making the puzzle more durable. The V-Cube 6b, which has the same "pillowed" shape as the V-Cube 7, was introduced later. There are 8 corners, 48 edges and 96 centers. Any permutation of the corners is possible, including odd permutations. Seven of the corners can be independently rotated, and the orientation of the eighth depends on the other seven, giving 8!×3 combinations. There are 96 centers, consisting of four sets of 24 pieces each. Within each set there are four centers of each color. Centers from one set cannot be exchanged with those from another
V-Cube 8 V-Cube 8 The V-Cube 8 is an 8×8×8 version of Rubik's Cube. Unlike the original puzzle (but like the 4×4×4 and 6×6×6 cubes), it has no fixed facets: the center facets (36 per face) are free to move to different positions. The design was covered by Panagiotis Verdes' patent from 2007 but Verdes Innovations SA did not produce it for sale until 2014. Other 8×8×8 cubes are produced by the Chinese companies ShengShou, MoYu, and YuXin. Methods for solving the 3×3×3 cube work for the edges and corners of the 8×8×8 cube, as long as one has correctly identified the
