Awesome!
Puzzle was super cool but the most impressive thing was how fast it was shipped! I always love ordering from Team JB Hobbies, they’re super fast, reliable and have a great selection!
Intriguing
This puzzle is quite different from other Karakui puzzle boxes and one needs to think outside the box to solve it. A great find and definitely a conversation piece for any curious guests visiting my home.
Awesome puzzle and super helpful customer service
I was looking for this as part of a proposal to my significant other, but it was sold out on every website I found. I emailed the company and they helped me find someone on Discord who would sell me one. I eventually eventually bought one from JB Hobbies because they got one in right as I was about to purchase it from the person on Discord. I was super amazed and greatdul they went the extra mile to help me get one.
Very cute, very clever :)
