No, not at a retirement center. We bought the new puzzle on sale at an outlet store, $4.99 (US) .
It was not an easy puzzle
Easy too!
We do not know how long it took. Not long after sorting and doing the edge we put everything away for a couple months, but wanted to finish it. It may have been a week with two people working on it a few hours every day.
No, we did not build it on top of the box art. Master Pieces included a poster and prior to taking the picture, my husband slid the poster under the puzzle to improve the picture.
It was a challenge, it took several days to complete.
Sorry, we usually put something similar in color behind the puzzle at the missing piece to make the overall picture look better, did not realize it bothered some people.
Thanks for the update, I think Bones will be moving out in a few days
We bought it used from a thrift shop so it may have been worn a little. It was similar to eeBoo, maybe a little better than Master Pieces or Ceaco not even close to Ravensburger. At $2.00 (US) it was great, but not sure I would pay $20 (US), although their puzzle with 101 Movies, is tempting.
