The inside of a taiyan is quite blocky unlike other Dayan cubes. The cubies making up the cube look similair to the ones on a Rubik's brand cube. Unlike most Dayan cubes this ones cubies are not put together with separate pieces but comes all in one. This cube does not have torpedos which are little pieces that prevent the cube from popping. To cover each cubie there is a cap for one of the sides only on corner cubies.
