MoYu MeiLong 12×12 V2 (Magnetic, Ball-Core)

The MoYu MeiLong 12M 12×12 V2 (Magnetic, Ball-Core) takes one of the most intimidating puzzles in cubing and makes it genuinely approachable. At just 75mm and 307g, it’s smaller and lighter than most 11x11s, with 184 magnets and ball-core positioning doing the heavy lifting so you can focus on solving instead of fighting the cube.

Why you’ll like it

• Compact for a 12×12: The 75mm size fits comfortably in your hands, which is no small thing on a puzzle this high-order.
• Lighter than you’d expect: At 307g magnetic, it’s nearly half the weight of the previous MeiLong 12×12 (533g), so long sessions don’t wear out your hands.
• Magnetic where the last one wasn’t: The V2 adds a full magnetic system for faster, more accurate alignment the original didn’t have.
• Built for the complexity: Three structural safeguards keep a puzzle with this many moving pieces stable and controllable.

Tuning & control

• Screw adjustment: Tailor tension to match your solving style with an easy-to-use adjustment system.
• Ball-core positioning: Foot magnets set an optimized magnetic distance for the ball-core, guiding movement for smoother, faster turning.
• Dual magnetic positioning: Piece-to-piece magnets sharpen edge and corner alignment while the ball-core keeps the whole cube tracking true.

Performance & design highlights

• 184 magnets in sync: Magnetism works across all pieces for fast, accurate alignment layer to layer.
• Triple center structure: Prevents misalignment and popping, keeping the core stable and reducing interference.
• Integrated 6-hole core: Strong support that resists loosening and deformation even under high-order stress.
• Anti-pop feet design: Triangular feet add extra stability to guard against edge pops.
• Matte finish: A comfortable, anti-slip grip on every piece.
• Wider outer layers and rounded corners: Better finger control, smoother turning, improved tolerance, and fewer lockups.
