Re: Hanayama Cast Puzzles
I found the Equa quite easy. Only took about 20 minutes to open. Took 2 days to put it back together though

BACK ON TOPIC: Oh and I just got an Elk as well. Had one a while back that we got from a Christmas cracker (back when cracker toys were good!!), but it has since been misplaced so I can't tell whether it was a Hanayama one or not. But I got a new one now anywho

IMHM, I think Cast News is one of the best. Well made, aesthetically appealing and very challenging from a puzzling perspective!03SVTCobra wrote:Picked up
