Have you got eyes in the back of your head? That Warm Christmas Feeling! is by artist Graham Thompson. All the family are enjoying that warm Christmas feeling that fills the room while Mum brings in the tea. Then why does Dad look so cross? The puzzle holds the answer! The picture on the box lid is not the puzzle; it is simply a clue to what the puzzle is! • One design • Age 8+ years • Made in New Zealand |

This was a LOT of fun... as much as any other Wasgij I have seen, done or even heard about. The 'wasgij' challenge is, of course, in building a puzzle WITHOUT any real assistance from the box art. The box show's YOUR point of view, but the puzzles shows the view on one of the characters IN the puzzle... that's an amazing challenge, but one that pays off when you see 'the punchline' of the joke - the final completed image. Without giving it all away, there isn't huge amounts I can saw, other than commenting on the study construction of the puzzle, the fact that unlike some cheap imports, all the pieces are well separated and easy to pull apart cleanly *if* any bits are still attached to each other, the image is well-attached to the base cardboard, meaning less in the way of dog-ears etc, and the fun factor is a well-deserved 10/10. Overall, the simple fact is this: if you love jigsaws, and haven't come across Wasgij's before, you've have somehow managed to miss out of the most fun you can have with oddly-shaped cardboard bits. If you are aware of these delightful rainy-day passtimes, then this is another stunning example of why they are not just a puzzle, they are a phenomena! Samtsihc Yrrem everyone! |
