Disaster - Pittsburgh, PA - The Y2K Bug Jigsaw Puzzle
Back in the late 1990's, everyone was in a panic because of something called the Y2K bug. For some reason, programmers, when programming computers never thought that the year 2000 would come up in the future. The date would simply be 1900 when it reset.
The fear was, that if 1999 rolled over to 2000, all the electronics around the world would stop, or worse, revolt. Nukes would be launched automatically for some reason, and everything would go crazy. People laughed at that idea and totally ignored the bug.
And everything was fine, until one day, the nukes did go off on its own, no one knows why, I guess it really did matter, maybe they should have fixed it. But that's too late now, nukes would keep going off inside of each person's countries. Only the countries that took this bug seriously survived. The others became a wasteland in no time at all.
Buildings are collapsing every day, food is scarce. Can't drive on the streets because they are broken and covered in broken cars. There were survivors, but what's the point of living at this point? You never know when another missile will drop either, so its all very frightening time to live.

I got this image in 110 pieces as I cannot commit to large puzzles. This one took me about an hour and was fairly easy. Perhaps 252 pieces would have better suited me for a little more complexity. This is not my favourite sugar skull as I prefer more girly colours like hot pink, reds and purples but I enjoyed doing this one. There is a lot of detail in the image and it was interesting to do. I don't think I will buy the larger puzzle count just because there are other sugar skull images that I much prefer.
Again very good quality puzzle and durable storage box that fits very well on small bookcase. The image was well positioned on this one so who ever printed this one got it pretty bang on.

We are pleased with the jigsaw itself. However we are disappointed the box is far bigger than the jigsaw and not the kind of storage box we expected i.e. Ravensburger standard; rather it's a postage box and not very sturdy at that. Given it cost £18 + pp we did expect more. The image quality is good.
The pieces are rather thin and flimsy.

I like puzzles but can't commit to thousands of pieces. I chose this one in 110 pieces because I wanted a challenge that could be completed in a few hours. This one took approx 3.5 hours to complete. The image is pretty uniform throughout so may seem daunting but some of the jigsaw pieces are quite unique which helps. You definitely need a good eye for detail and this puzzle is challenging and engaging giving the satisfaction of completion after a relatively short commitment of time.
I do not like thousands of pieces because I don't have the time or motivation to keep going back to a puzzle which needs to be stored and moved and this can result in a loss of pieces.
The box the puzzle is supplied in is good quality and will store the puzzle safely for a long time. The box also fits on one of my small bookcase so storage is very easy. The puzzle print is slightly smaller than the image on the box and this makes orientation of the puzzle harder. The image is of really good quality though and I'm happy with the quality of this aspect.
