I almost feel like I'm selling off my grandparent's ashes and belongings with this one. Turtle Trip was the very first major 3d-printed puzzle I bought that wasn't just a packer or tic puzzle while also being one of the first sequential discovery puzzles which introduced me to the ever-popular puzzling genre.
It's sentimental on multiple levels how much I've enjoyed keeping this puzzle around for years on end. I even miss Gerard since he vanished from MPD 3 years ago. I sincerely hope he simply dropped out of the hobby instead of something tragic happening to him. But his final messages were about planning a new run of Slammed Cars to sell as well as about his sequel puzzle to Turtle Trip called "Squirreled Away", a squirrel who has lost their ticket to the pond party.
However I haven't touched this puzzle in literally years now, and I rather it head out into the world to find a new owner who would enjoy it and play with it once more. It's a fantastic puzzle which amalgamates multiple puzzling genres into one incredible journey which will make you work for every last step before giving up the final prize in a cheeky manner.
3d printing has come so incredibly far, but knowing that this puzzle was designed and printed out over 6 years ago, you'd be astonished at how incredibly well it'd compare to the 3d prints of today. Gerard is incredibly accomplished at making his 3d printers just produce gem after gem!
Cherish this turtle why don't you? And you'll laugh at seeing the revealed prize at the end of the journey.
Please note that I'll be busy this upcoming week, and can't promise that I will be able to immediately ship out the puzzles after the current set of auctions end. I may be delayed until next Monday the 16th before I ship out to the auction winners.
