I think I like this puzzle. The standard 3x3x2 is just a quick solve, not one I dedicate much time or effort to. However this is a different take on things and perhaps I’ll extend my collection into the bigger crazy cubes. I’d like a basic Crazy 3x3x3. In any event, for now, I wanted to write up some notes. Here is my solve method and my latch piece is red/green/yellow. That’ll lock the center circle in place.

1. Solve inner cross
2. Solve inner corners (on Right) (R2/U2/R2/U2)
3. Find ‘latch’ corner – keep on bottom (left)
4. Solve bottom outer edges (keep latch out of the way)
5. Solve bottom corners (use a dummy piece)
6. Adjacent corner swap (latch on back-left)(headlights in front)
   • Turn 180 degrees and move headlights to the right side)
   • Reverse (2L/U’/2L/U/2L – rotate clockwise – 2L/U/2L/U’/2L)
7. Last-layer edge swaps (keep latch out of the way)
