In doing Bicube, I put two tiles on the wrong position, so I get a new bandaged cube. When I scramble it and try to solve it, I find that it is too difficult for me. Many friend attempted to solve it, but it still be the scramble state. In theory, it can be scrambled ,it should be restored.
As the tile was firmed by the glue, seperating may damage it, but what is the original state of the bandaged cube;
The cube is the mini size, came into by the mistake, so I call it“luck baby”

A week later, I can not restore it , so I disassembled it and reassembled it
The lucky baby

Short analysis:

This variant has one implicit bond between the green face and the core => The green side can never be moved.
Its signature is equivalent to 210B9308400846
There are 608 different shapes
and 360 permutations for each shape.

The white face can't turn either or am I missing something which makes it different from the green face?

Can you define shape in this context? Are you talking about states not taking the colors into account, i.e location of the cuts? I'd say the shape of this puzzle is a cube and that never changes so I'm aware you must be using it in a different way then I'm used to.

... I should know better and always check my results twice. Argh!

This variant is equivalent to 10700087B0043D,
has no implicit bonds
has 287 signatures
has 360 permutations per signature.

signatures means: Peel of all stickers except those on the faces. Assume the core (and faces) fixed in space. All distinguishable states are the signatures.
