Hanayama Cast Puzzles
Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
To be honest I don't know which I have, but got a lot of them. Also don't memorize the names for each puzzle. 

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
the galaxy prototype was seen at a local puzzle party by Neil (in Livermore). I saw an earlier prototype at IPP32 in DC.
luckily Hanayama puzzles are good quality for the price... I don't have the complete set, but I do have all the harder ones...

OOOOOOOOOO? proud owner of set #29, BL09, R00009, OR00009, LM00009, HM-09 and BlackV2obs
Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
I have all of them except for the Disney ones, the small key chain versions, and the new Delta. I'll get the Delta as soon as I can find a place to order it from.
Needs to be updated!

Ahh I see, thought I would be something like thatsmiteo wrote:the galaxy prototype was seen at a local puzzle party by Neil (in Livermore). I saw an earlier prototype at IPP32 in DC....

I don't plan on getting the full set, cos there are some that either look too easy or just not appealing, like Seabream, Shark, Reef, Seahorse ...... erm strangely all the "Ocean" related ones


But I plan on getting all (if not, most) of the harder ones and the cool looking ones

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
You will really miss a great puzzle if you don't buy Dolce (one of my favorites). The 6 "ocean" puzzles did not belong to the main Hanayama Cast puzzle collection earlier. It was a separate Marine Series by Hanayama.TheWaddler wrote:I don't plan on getting the full set, cos there are some that either look too easy or just not appealing, like Seabream, Shark, Reef, Seahorse ...... erm strangely all the "Ocean" related ones![]()
but also Dolce, S&S, Medal, and definitely not the Disney ones and the others that stet mentions.

The four Disney versions are not worth the money. They are the same puzzles as the original, but smaller and more like toys, so do not buy them.

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
I'd weigh in and say that you shouldn't avoid some of them because they seem too easy. The Cast Loop is certainly one of the easier puzzles in the Cast series, but it is also one of my favourites.

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
I'm liking the H&H so far even though I've done it once :/ Nice and fiddly, twisty, turny, frustration of fun.

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
Yeah, I'll be getting the Loop because I'm hoping it will fit in my stretched earrings then I can carry it round with me all the timeParadox wrote:I'd weigh in and say that you shouldn't avoid some of them because they seem too easy.

It's just some don't look as appealing as others

Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
The H&H is a nice puzzle but has multiple solutions (when I got it I managed to find 3 different solutions but as i havent played with it for so long ill be lucky if i can remember 1)BBloke wrote:I'm liking the H&H so far even though I've done it once :/ Nice and fiddly, twisty, turny, frustration of fun.
