EuroGraphics Tanks of WWII 1000 Piece Puzzle , Brown

Great puzzel for anyone.

It’s a phenomenal puzzle that my son is going to glue together and put up in his room!

I got this puzzle for my 13 y.o. son who is into war history. He is very detail oriented and he really enjoyed putting it together, it didnt take him long. It is challenging though as many pieces look pretty much the same due to the lack of color variety. I know I would have had a hard time with it. If you are patient and detail oriented you will probably like it.

I found the tanks within this puzzle to be so similar in color and camouflage patterns that it was extremely time consuming and frustrating. I eventually gave up and moved on to something more interesting. I bought this puzzle after completing the the EuroGraphics Aircraft of WWII puzzle which i found challenging but enjoyable.

Fun to put together. You gotta like tanks.

This was a good, challenging, interesting puzzle. The fit of a piece is generally evident although on about 10 pieces (1%) I turned two pieces over to verify the fit. If you ever lose a piece or, like I did with two, knock a piece on the floor where to puppy then helped by chewing the piece to a malleable state, you can just order a new puzzle and search for the damaged pieces. I tried that only to discover that all puzzles of the same type are not cut that same. Only after the second puzzle arrived did see that there is a number on the side of the box that is different and the picture of a piece on the front (between Puzzle and 1000) is a different shape and color on the two boxes.

This puzzle, my third in the Eurographics series, is a delight for those interested in tanks who enjoy a challenge. My strategy was to focus on the 31 individual tanks, which are rendered in remarkable detail, and on the technical data for each tank. This is not a puzzle that most people will be able to complete in one sitting. I was more than halfway through the puzzle before I could complete the border, and there was one tiny piece that I couldnt fit until the very end. Once completed, the puzzle is an attractive and informative chart.

This puzzle came with two missing pieces. Heartbreaking because otherwise it is an awesome puzzle to assemble.

It can be quite tricky (and time-consuming) to put together a puzzle that features many tanks (some which have similar camouflage schemes), lots of text descriptions, and a never-changing background. But it is a cool puzzle once you complete it.

Awesome collection of historic tanks! I wish it was 2000 pieces as I didnt want it to end!
