Spin Master Games, 1000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzles 2-Pack, Retro Comics & Fruit Labels, Puzzles for Kids Ages 8 & Up

Have only built the 1st puzzle, the one with the woods and cabin - thoroughly enjoyed. Great colors. Puzzle pieces are moderate/good quality, which for the price I was expecting much lower quality. The pieces fit together well, just could not always pick up groups of pieces. But all-in-all for the price this was an excellent puzzle. Enjoyable to put together, moderate difficulty and very pretty picture when it was done (looks nicer than the online picture or the box picture). There was no poster in the box, but I never use the poster anyway and am happy they saved the money on printing an expensive color poster.

These are surprisingly high quality puzzles with a very nice matte finish and great image quality. The subjects are fun — and real. One is pulp magazine covers from the ‘50’s, the other is fruit crate labels from the same era. I’ve included a few pics of the magazine covers, both overall and close-up. Most cover subjects that are off-limits today, either from stereotypes (the “stewardess” and the Captain) or bordering on exploitation. But they all existed, and were widely sold to teens and young adults as ”Romance Magazines”. How far we’ve come in such a relatively short time.These are especially good for multiple puzzlers, as you can each work on an area as a “mini puzzle”. The individual magazine cover art is distinctive enough in color and style to be able to find “your” piece from hundreds of other pieces relatively quickly. For example, there is lots of red or yelllow or blue in the covers, but each is slightly different, so a careful eye can find the same shade, which is probably unique to a particular magazine cover. Ditto the font colors and styles.The same is true for the fruit crate labels, although we’re in the middle of that one so no pics — but it’s great fun to see the artwork and creativity that went into these labels “back in the day”. I grew up surrounded by fruit orchards in Washington State, and likely ate fruit from some of these concerns 60 to 70 years ago. I may have even picked for a couple of them, as it was common in the ‘50’s for orchards to hire teens who were looking to make a few bucks. We would ride our bikes to the orchards, pick all day, eat too much fruit, get a few bucks, then ride home. They also used professional migrant pickers, but were kind (or smart) enough to also hire local kids, which was a boost to our little individual bottom lines — and the local “baseball trading card and bubble gum pack” economy.Only downside is there is no paper image to work from — only the small image on the back of the box. We solved that by scanning, enlarging (to 8-1/2 X 11) and printing multiple copies so we all have our own “crib sheet”, which makes the group puzzling much more fun.I would gladly pay more to have a foldable puzzle image included, as many (costlier) puzzle-makers do. But as far as image and product quality go, these are up with puzzles costing three times as much.

I'm absolutely loving jigsaw puzzles! The beautiful landscapes are so captivating, and the pieces fit together easily in some areas, while others are a bit more challenging. It's a great balance of fun and difficulty that keeps me engaged.What I love most is that the whole family enjoys working on these puzzles together. It's become a fun bonding activity for us, and we all look forward to spending time together piecing together the images.The quality of the pieces is good enough, with vibrant and clear image printing. We've had a great time working on these puzzles, and I'd definitely recommend them to fellow puzzle enthusiasts.If you're looking for a fun and relaxing hobby to enjoy with your family, I highly recommend giving these puzzles a try!

Like many people, I've turned to jigsaw puzzles during the lockdown. I always loved puzzles and the home time has rekindled that love. So in other words, I do a lot of puzzles.When I saw this 2-pack I couldn't believe the price. Read the positive and negative reviews;Cons:No poster included (for those who like them)The FULL picture of the puzzle is NOT on the front of the box. The FULL picture is on the bottom section of the box. This is inconvenient, but since I tend to make my puzzles with the pieces in the bottom of the box and the lid for me to look at, I just reversed the process. So in other words, I kept my pieces in the TOP of the box and flipped the bottom (now empty) for reference.The box is small so when you are just beginning the puzzles, you find yourself digging through quite a pile of pieces rather than sifting if the box were larger. Puzzle piece sorting containers are handy.Pros:The price. For two quality puzzles this is a great deal.No dust.The pieces fit well and there's a good range of cuts and sizes.When I first handled the pieces they seemed smaller and lighter than most (I just finished a White Mountain puzzle). BUT they are very sturdy. No separation of top pic from other layers.These are not cheap cardboardGreat picture quality.Glossy texture which I think helps protect the pieces.Small footprint for storageResult: very very pleased.

These puzzles are the best! Little challenging but that's what puzzles are for. The colors are beautiful.

These puzzles were fun but one of them was missing 3 pieces.Disappointing after all that work.

If you care about how well the pieces of a puzzle fit together, this is for you. Precision is the first word that comes to me. You can lift large portions of this puzzle with ease, and no pieces fall off. Amazing. I can't find anything negative to say. And this precision at a really great price.
