Shengshou Gigamorphix 5x5 — five-layer morphix for a very long shape-shifting challenge

ShengShou Gigamorphix 5×5, also known as 5×5 Mastermorphix, is a five-layer morphix puzzle that completely changes shape when scrambled. It is non-magnetic, stickerless, about 86 mm without packaging, and about 158 g.

Who this gigamorphix is for

• For advanced solvers who know 5×5 or at least larger NxN reduction.
• For people who like Mastermorphix but want a much longer challenge.
• For collectors of large morphix puzzles.
• Not a good first shape mod.

Turning feel

• The turning is smooth, but the puzzle is complex and needs careful alignment.
• The shape deforms significantly when scrambled.
• Because of the five layers, recognising centres and edges becomes a serious task.

Magnets and mechanism

• No magnets.
• The mechanism is 5×5 Mastermorphix / Gigamorphix type.
• Solving is based on reduction, like large NxN cubes, but in a morphix shape.

Size, weight and materials

• Size without packaging: about 86 × 86 × 86 mm.
• Weight without packaging: about 158 g.
• Package: about 77 × 77 × 77 mm in one retail specification, about 176–181 g gross.
• Surface: stickerless bright plastic.

Main advantages

• Large and very impressive 5×5 morphix.
• Long challenge for experienced solvers.
• Excellent collectible model.
• Good training for reduction and spatial thinking.

Things to keep in mind

• No magnets.
• Very hard for beginners.
• Because of shape shifting, orientation is easy to lose.

How to use

Solve it by reduction: centres, edges, then finishing like a morphix 3×3. Do not rush — on this model, shape recognition is as important as algorithms.
