YJ MGC Square-1 V1 – Classic Magnetic Square-1 with Customisable Colour Scheme

The YJ MGC Square-1 V1 is one of the most popular magnetic Square-1 speedcubes ever released, offering a smooth turning feel, strong performance, and excellent value. As part of YJ’s highly regarded MGC series, it delivers reliable performance for both beginners and experienced Square-1 solvers.

With a compact size of approximately 54×56mm, the MGC V1 feels comfortable in the hands and is easy to control during both shape-shifting and cube shape phases. The magnetic design helps improve alignment between turns, making it more stable and predictable compared to non-magnetic Square-1s.

One of the standout features of the V1 is its customisable colour scheme. It comes with replacement black caps included in the box, allowing you to swap either the white or yellow face to black — a popular setup for many Square-1 solvers.
