A customly stickered 3x3x3 with an extremely complex stickering scheme.

Also known as 1337 Cube 2.0
See the separate entry.
The big difference to my the inventor's 1337 Cube is, that one can't solve the Follow Cube like a regular Rubik's Cube by colour. There is no longer a backdoor solution. One needs 3 stickerless cubes to make one Follow Cube. The Follow Cube also uses the SNP-System, but it's a little trickier to use, because there are arrows on the cube instead of numbers.

The inventor cut small triangles out of the stickers that represents the numbers from 1 to 9. So we have 9 numbers in all of the 6 standard cube colours. Every number-colour-combination only exists once on the cube. See image 3.

The triangles are also little arrows. To solve the cube, you have to find the special arrangement of the arrows. Each arrow points to the following arrow. You have to count the steps to the next arrow. So if there is a "4" on the sticker, follow the arrow 4 steps and you will reach the next arrow. If you follow along all the arrows you will reach every of the 54 stickers. Image 4 shows this system.

But solving this will be nearly impossible if you don't know which number-colour-combination is the next one. The arrangement of the numbers looks random, but it is not. The designer invented a system, that allows one to find the next number and colour easily. All you need is my simple and easy to learn SNP-System and you instantly know what's next.
