3.0 out of 5 stars Clunky, 7 Jun 2011
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Hanayama Nut Case Puzzle (Toy)
Rated at 6 out of 6 in difficulty level.

Allegedly one of the most difficult puzzles in the series (alongside the much better Hanayama Enigma Puzzle or Hanayama Vortex Puzzle).

This puzzle had me ... er ... puzzled for quite a while.

From just looking at it, you'd say you have a pretty good idea how to go about it.
However, the solution is rather more complicated than "twisting nuts and bolts".

Maybe I'm too old fashioned, but I like these sort of puzzles to work as a series of clever manipulations. The more elegant, the better.

This one feels clunky and unnatural.
Also, if you insist on going the "twisting" way, it's easy to seize up the whole thing.

The grating nature of this puzzle had me give it up after a few days. I just couldn't get excited about solving it.

Still, as ever with this company, the puzzle is top quality, so by all means do try it if you're curious about it.

As a side note, I wish Amazon would also sell the beautiful looking "Sea" series from this company, such as Cast Shark, Cast Seahorse, Cast Claw and others (which I luckily managed to buy from elsewhere).
Whilst not being top difficulty, these are by far the best looking puzzles. They combine "traditional" metal puzzle solutions with a natural imagery of sea life.

4.0 out of 5 stars GOOD PRODUCT, 17 Jan 2012
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Hanayama Nut Case Puzzle (Toy)
I had no problem about the product, it is an absolute beauty, the only problem was the delivery which took upto 15 days. It was in fantastic condition, and has hours and hours of fun, however i would not reccomend this for under 11 year olds as this is quite heavy, and they will end up biting it or throwing it . WE HAVE RECIEVED THE PRODUCT.
