I have spent a small fortune over the last 9 years. I suggest that you read Gabriel’s blog for puzzles that are much more affordable. Hopefully I also will get back to reviewing some cheaper puzzles sometime but not sure when.

Have you any plans to do any more outside your yearly top 10 (ish)? <br /><br />Something that I (being a relative puzzle novice) would find really helpful is some sort of list looking at puzzles that are cheap/easily available. I get excited about reading about puzzles like Slammed Car... until I look into how to buy one.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973448150841003588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341941751324943000.post-47674033907107441702020-01-07T20:56:21.173+00:002020-01-07T20:56:21.173+00:00I’m so pleased that you enjoyed my post and even f...I’m so pleased that you enjoyed my post and even follow them year on year! Hopefully I can keep it going for another year! Apart from jigsaw 19 I don’t have any other of Yuu Asaka's puzzles yet. I’m hoping to get them this year sometime.<br /><br />You will love the Eggplant!

Most of the disentanglement puzzles that I got in 2019 were so complex that I struggled with them and found them less enjoyable.<br /><br />And yes 4L is amazing!Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649523779226834414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341941751324943000.post-82567264764681835542020-01-07T17:04:46.317+00:002020-01-07T17:04:46.317+00:00Thanks for such a great list of puzzles. I've ...Thanks for such a great list of puzzles. I've been looking forward to this for a while (since this time last year in fact!).<br /><br />I have just ordered the Pelikan Eggplant puzzle, so glad to see it making number 3 on the list.<br /><br />Given your praise of Jigsaw 29 last year, I thought that one of Yuu Asaka's latest efforts may have made it onto the list. Although I cannot attest for Wave 5's merits (since I have not completed it yet), it is certainly very hard, and presumably very clever too.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973448150841003588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341941751324943000.post-40207822345814077452020-01-07T04:08:01.303+00:002020-01-07T04:08:01.303+00:00Foreign Office Reporting:

On my top shelf.<br /><br />I would add that U-shaped thing on a stick from JCC (via Wil). I thought that was very clever, and the top ten must include a tanglement. <br /><br />Also, although i know it is not from 2019, my personal list for this year includes Mineyuki Uyematsu's 4L, which i just got around to. Wow, what a puzzle! <br /><br /><br /><br />Mike Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454665196020907943noreply@blogger.com
