Merry Masquerade* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Not my favorite of the images, but once I got going with the faces the rest of the puzzle came together relatively easily. It’s a merry masquerade party – according to me.

Today we’ve have the first quality issue with these puzzles, but I believe it was more about how they were packaged than anything else. You cannot see in the finished puzzle, but there is one piece with a tab bent so far that the actual chipboard is broken. It’s still connected to it’s piece by the image/paper on the front of the puzzle, but care had to be taken not to further damage the piece.

When you have a puzzle packaged in a container that isn’t overly large sometimes pieces get crammed into the space available to them and bent pieces like this can occur. In comparison to other problems it definitely isn’t a deal breaker, and this is the first issue I’ve had with these puzzles at all.
