Description

Still in its original shrinkwrap.

Why do I say this is very rare? I can't find any prior auctions or any other online information about this puzzle.

Note that this appears at first glance to be a typical 2D packing puzzle, with typical pieces (zoom in on the primary image to see them). However, it's something quite different. You can read the instructions in the yellow image. A very clever idea!

The puzzle is located in the United States, but I will ship worldwide.

Can you make each image appear correctly?The puzzle is located in the United States, but I will ship worldwide.Customs forms for international shipments will reflect actual paymen...

NOTE: I have solved and reset this puzzle several times recently. The mechanism is sticky and does not fully operate as I would expect. Perhaps some of the issues can be fixed with a bit of sanding?
