Re: 2019/2020 - Update From RevoHQ' -

The Revomaze Mini that I paid for the day it was announced (going on three weeks now) has shown as "Processing" since then... Did you make these before selling them, or are we going to end up "in the queue" along with all these interminable delays I keep reading about for other i...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

Just finished my Revenge Lock/The Wanderer experience. It's a great puzzle and not only really fun to take apart. And, unlike what I read on the forum, the reassembly is a beautiful process as well. It's not that reassembly is awful or not fun. It IS fun. But it is also challenging in a way that th...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

I think of them more as workable art... Value is in the eye of the beholder but I would not consider them puzzles at all. Just objects with a twist really. They are nice works though "Worth it"? That's always up to you. I have all of them, and am happy to own them, picking them up just to...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

That's exactly what I am saying :-). Everyone's mind works differently, but putting it back together was just as hard, in a different way, as getting it open.

Same thing goes for Wil's Aluminum Cross (not the Sweta). VERY tough to open, big challenge to reassemble.

Re: Puzzles For Sale

True, and much less expensive there (https://www.puzzlemaster.ca/browse/wood/european/12812-casino) as well. I have that version and it is quite nice, but I am still putting up the cash for Eric's version :-). I'll give the other one away some day. Already gave one to my son's scary-smart girlfriend...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

First Box is epic. You get it open and you see that it's only a couple of parts, but oh man, deducing where they are, how they move, if they interfere with each other and if so, how and in what order... All with only a couple of holes to peer into. Fun. At least you can just put it back together, un...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

jpgamesltd.co.uk is also selling Strijbos on eBay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_ssn=jp.games.ltd&LH_PrefLoc=&_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=strijbos&_sacat=0). £10 higher than on their Web site. Which in turn is slightly lower than sloyd.fi... And Mr. Puzzle's even less,...
