BePuzzled | Penguin and Baby Original 3D Crystal Puzzle, Ages 12 and Up

Super Cute!! Easy to put assemble and it looks great. Bought (penguine, wolf, Stitch) as stocking stuffers each of my older kids & they loved them.

Bought for a friend’s teen who likes penguins and puzzles. It was a hit!

This is my second 3D puzzle from this company. The first was the pirate ship. On this one, it went a lot easier because I would follow the " direction" the instructions showed for that piece.On the pieces that I had a hard time with, I would take back a piece or two that was already planted and played with them for a bit to see how they went. One of the pieces needed to go "behind" two others. I never would have gotten it if not for playing matchie matchie.If you downloaded the instructions, they basically give you two "instructions". The first it to go in the order listed. I put all mine in baggies (1-10, 11-20, etc). I would only open the baggie that I needed at that time. The second is the instructions show you which way the piece fits.What also helps is to screw in the rod to Piece number one and the rest of the pieces go around and it also holds the pieces mostly in place. You will need to remove the rod now and then, but just remove it, place the piece, then screw it back in. Even though the rod helps keep the pieces in place, you still have to be careful not to upend what you have accomplished.The only issue I had was the very last piece (left fore leg with crystal ball). This had to slots and the middle slot fit nicely into the body. The upper slot had a hard time fitting into the neck. So I just pressed the body slot until it snapped in place and the neck slot sort of got there, but it's solid and not going anywhere.I'm now looking for another one to work on, either the skull or castle or dinosaur.

This was the first of these I had bought that had a "parent" and a "baby" or side animal, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The parent polar bear was slightly challenging to put together, but I've done so many of these by now that it didn't take me long. And then all the leftover pieces were for the baby polar bear, which I think was only like 2 or 3 pieces, lol. The not-so-great part about these is having to put on the dang stickers yourself for the eyes. THEY ARE SO SMALL !!! I literally had to get tweezers to try to line them up on BOTH bears because I was so afraid I would lose the little black dot pieces that were supposed to go on as the eyes. Also, the nose area is NOT flat, so you have to curve around the sticker for the nose and it does not like to stay on very well. In the end, was still cute. I was a little disappointed it didn't secure into the base, it just sits on it like a platform, and not a very sturdy one. Also, the overall size of it was smaller than I thought. I completed the teddy bear and the owl and this was dwarfed compared to that, so that's something to keep in mind. Otherwise I can't really knock it for what it is, so I am still giving 5 out of 5 stars. If you like polar bears and think it's cute, you should still buy it!!

At first this thing was confusing to navigate, hard to put together, but once you put two or four pieces on it starts clicking into place, and becomes nice and easy to assemble, its fun and simple to put together, like a hunt to find the perfect piece to the puzzle. I love these and i'll be buying more!!!

My son's girlfriend loves elephants. This was right up her alley. She enjoys puzzles.

They turned out really nice! Instructions have to be downloaded. The pieces for both penguins were in one bag. Pieces are numbered in a nonsensical order. Numbers on pieces are tiny and difficult to read. The pieces don't snap together, they lay on each other, so use clear scotch tape to hold together as you build. I cheated and watched a youtube video. I laced the pieces on paper with their # next to each piece. And if the pieces are placed up or down so I can do them again. Display beautifully. The clear plastic looks nice in the sunlight. Difficult but fun. Takes an afternoon to put together.

This had zero instructions, and the numbers on the pieces mean nothing. I was expecting the numbers to correlate how they go together, but not at all. I had to look up on YouTube how to put it all together. The pieces just kind of lay on top of one another, they don't click together, so they don't stay well until the end when you put the locking piece in. This was a pain to put together, but once done, they are really cute figurines.
