Jumbo Puzzle – Jan van Haasteren – Happy Birthday
Amazon asked me to review this puzzle in a format that describes it as a childs toy… Well, I purchased this for my 43 year old wife (who loves ths range of jigsaws), and cannot think that a child would get anywhere near as much fun out of it as an adult… Some of the themes are quite racy (tongue-in-cheek adult) too, so the cannot really be described as suitable for kids. The joy of these puzzles is that you get to explore the busy (fun) environments of the cartoonism as you crack the puzzle. This adds another dimension to jigsaw puzzing for many people. The jigsaws themselves are about as good quality as you can get (the pieces are thick, there are no tears or peeling pieces and the pieces fit together comfortably). These are quite collectable Jigsaws, so if you look after it & sell it on afterwards (either via Amazon or an internet auction site), you will practically make your money back (I have actually made more than the purchase price for one I sold). So this COULD be a hobby for free… I haven’t sold any more, though (as my wife now wishes to collect them).
A great alternative puzzle for those who aren’t averse to a bit of fun.
PS: I have left this same review for many puzzles on Amazon of this cartoonism genre… My wife rates them equally (even though some are by different artists), so this review counts for them all.
Rating: 5 / 5
This puzzle along with the other puzzles that I have by Jan van Haasterten is great fun to do Packed with animation, comic expressions and characters No great swathes of one colour so if you are into fun rather than boring and/or torture this is for you
Rating: 5 / 5
If you like light hearted, full coloured jigsaws which don’t have tons of boring blue sky or green fields or other large areas of much the same, then you will love this jigsaw.
