Burma Road In Progress…

Burma Road by Charles Wysocki – Buffalo (Silver Edition) – 1000 pieces

Although I am very much enjoying this Wysocki image, my first impression of this Buffalo Silver Edition puzzle is one of disappointment. The only difference I can see so far is the box; it’s much fancier than a regular Buffalo puzzle and the pieces come in a resealable plastic bag – that’s it.

The fit is VERY loose, the cut is a bit odd, and I’m just not that impressed with it at all. I was hoping it would have thicker pieces, or a more snug fit, or a different cut – something to make it different from their regular puzzles. This Silver Edition puzzle is underwhelming. 😥

Still, it’s a very nice image and I’m enjoying myself even if the puzzle quality isn’t up to my snobby standards.

    Love the picture! I’m the same – I think you have to have standards or it’s not fun. If it turns into a chore, I’m not interested. Puzzling is very therapeutic to me. I listen to podcasts or favorite music and…aahhhh…

    A lovely image! I had never heard of Buffalo Silver Edition and I’m glad to know your thoughts and that you are unimpressed. Sorry to hear that, but at least you have a pretty scene to assemble. And you’ve done your readers a service by letting them know not to get too hyped about any Silver Edition nonsense… lol!

    I hadn’t heard of Buffalo Silver Edition puzzles either. I’m sorry that yours is underwhelming. Having personal puzzle standards makes puzzling a joy. Kudos to you (and Deb).
