As you were working through this, it appeared to be a mass-produced product that didn't go through much, if any, quality control testing. It's too bad, b/c it was an interesting idea, and if they'd made the box to the same standard as the Batarang, it probably would've been a lot of fun to solve.
As a side note Chris is stupid and you're supposed to leave the card inserted while you type the code in and then the box will pop out proper, but yeah def high budget for value either way.
@StealthyDead Amazon sells it for a little over $60...that's the only reason I got it...but really? If it wasn't for the amazing Batarang, I wouldn't even bother lol As Chris said, it's definitely not meant for puzzle enthusiasts...and where they rate it at a 9 difficulty, I'd put it at MAX a 5...but probably closer to a 3 or 4.
Trust me bro I totally agree one of his most expensive puzzles cost $40,000 Apperently and I was like nahh they seen you coming to spend that money on some plastic and flashing lights n sounds n paper clues like wtf who would for real spend that on a puzzle
A note on the final moves - I got this puzzle box as well and the final solve was first punch in the numbers, then the keycards would push in and that would pop open the drawer. Unfortunately the tolerances on the keycard bit was a pain in the butt, so easy enough to miss the ordering and such.
It was pretty well spelled out in the clues, too (? symbol under the code) but he was so focused on this as a mechanical puzzle he forgot that this is about RIDDLES as much as the box itself. Also probably why he just went "Penguin?" and then forgot about the riddle-clue for the code, while that was supposed to prime him to think about ROBIN + Catwoman, because the symbols were Robin, Catwoman, Nightwing (aka Dick Grayson, a former Robin), and Red Hood (aka Jason Todd, another former Robin).
@@ChrisRamsay52 I think that the reason the box didn't spring out is that you 'forgot to call your oldest friend' as stated in the hint given by Riddler.
Pretty simple puzzle, but perfect for a Batman/Riddler fan. Good on you for correcting your initial review. Without integrity, a person cannot call themselves honorable by any definition of the word. Great video and fun content, even if it was pretty quick.
I messed around with card tricks a long time ago so I know a few moves. I like re-winded the time-travel trick like a thousand times and finally got how the trick was done. Neat trick Chris. So simple yet so effective.
Enjoyed watching you solve this simple puzzle. I have found that you are the main reason I like watching you solve puzzles and the puzzle is just the icing on the cake so to speak. Thanks Chris, you as always are awesome!"♥️♥️👍💯✌🇨🇦
I got the regular version and sure, it looks cool, but it wasn’t reset from factory. Seems to be the same for lots of people. The number buttons was already pushed in so i had no idea if i pushed the correct ones. Still a cool looking piece on the shelf! Love your videos Chris, keep it up man! 🥰
Good puzzle. Loved the Batarang. It was a bit too easy, finished in less than 17 minutes. Mine did not come with a blacklight either. Thanks for always being aweome! Love your content!
200 bucks for a plastic puzzle that is cheaply made with a faulty mechanism for the big final reveal at the end? No thanks. This should be like 50 bucks tops.
I love the Riddler! He’s my favorite DC villain! *As I get flashbacks from playing the Arkham Games*…especially Arkham Knight. 😵💫 If you know, you know. Anyhoo, you’re awesome Chris! Big fan of your channel! Keep it up!
Unfortunate. Missing the blacklight was not good. Definitely not an 8 though. Sorry it wasn't quite what you expected but it was still fun to watch and the Batarang is cool!
This is definiently the second best puzzle he has ever done. The number one puzzle is the sequential puzzle that he solved that had the thumb inside of it.
Thanks Chris! Always enjoy a good video from you. My thoughts on the puzzle alone? A bummer of a puzzle for a level 8 even though it's meant for everyone.
Batman is probably one of the weirdest successful superheroes to ever exist. He's a rich orphan who's an expert in martial arts that dresses up as a bat and goes up and beats up bad guys, and he's not the only weird-ass hero in the DC roster lmao
Ok so I want to set some things straight about this product, firstly it was said that this wouldn’t have a black light included although they didn’t make that obvious. Also with the little card puzzle you Linda just had to jam it in until it went in, which I gotta say isn’t the best type of quality but it works fine for me. Along with the final drawer popping out when the cards are inserted and the numbers are put into the keypad
Hey Chris, have you ever done a video where you explain what the levels mean? Obviously 10 is hard and 7 is not so hard, but what to do those objectively relate to?
Dear Chris, love your videos showed you to many friends and family always loved puzzles myself not even close to your level but I appreciate everything!
Hey I just wanted to say I am a big fan of your stuff and have been for a while. I just wanted to say thank you. Also are you feeling better and did you get reinspired.
Just so you know bro, we appreciate your passion for videos solving puzzles and I watch every one you pt out. Don't think for a second that taking time for yourself could be an issue cause I can wait. You're videos are just tat good, 👌👍
You messed up the keypad, which is probably why it didn't open. The clue said to forget the bat, calls the birds and the cat, and it also says they need to be in a specific order. 7:28
Great video, but the puzzle was a bit... dissapointing, wasn't it? The whole thing seems a bit sad and artificlal, and there were tons of plastic wrapped stuff but almost nothing to use it for., almost no clues to be found.. and it seems like the puzzle lacks feedback (lights turning on, things clicking, something!) , so you have no confirmation of when you have done something right. Even with the card in the right place, the final reveal felt pretty underwhelming. Also, the batarang was not even used in the puzzle, just a random collector's item they put in!
Hello Chris big fan of videos always bring a smile and joy watching U videos I have found that esc welt has a new puzzle called Quest tower trying to solve it at the moment very fun lots of part hoping U can look into making a video of it keep up the amazing videos and magic tricks U fan Jordy 😊
The puzzle seeming to be unbelievably difficult but being easier than it looks and often containing the answer to its own mystery blatantly is absolutely thematically apropos to the idea it was designed and made by the Riddler. Edward Nygma is a very intelligent man, but he is NOWHERE NEAR as intelligent as his egotism has convinced him he is, and his condescension towards the intelligence of everyone around him often compels him to 'dumb down' his riddles and puzzles to 'give those fools a sporting chance' while still fully expecting them to fail at solving his 'brilliant game.' This tendency has been EXACTLY his achilles heel throughout his entire history as a villain. If he actually seriously considered for a moment that Batman may be as smart as him (thinking Batman or anyone else may be SMARTER than him is something he is totally incapable of) he would start facing Batman and everyone else with riddles HE would have difficulty solving, which genuinely WOULD be extremely difficult to solve. The fact that it is rated 8 when it really is probably about a 4 or 5 is all IC. The Riddler probably _rated it himself in-universe_ and is again displaying both his tendency to undercut and overrate his own puzzles and intelligence. As a Batman fan collection piece it is absolutely well thoight out and planned, and its creators should get props not only for coming up with a decent puzzle but _managing to keep in true character as The Riddler throughout the entire design process._
I didn't get a black light either...not sure why they wouldn't send it with the box 😕And...I opened the "jammed" drawer before getting any of the other puzzles done -_- Unfortunately, they make it easy to tell which buttons need to be pressed, and it doesn't take much wiggling to get it open. Of course, if you want the whole batarang put together, solving the rest is required LOL xD
Watched that and thought, eh, probably around 50 bucks, thats not so bad. Clicked the link and $152!!!!!! WTF!!! Absolutely not worth that for a plastic box with like 4 puzzles!
By the way , when I looked at this I'm pretty sure that the box would have popped open had you left in the Bruce Wayne and matching I'd card that had a ? Mark on it then dialed the code or even the other way bc the clue had the dial cat and penguin thing and then the ?with the box around it for the I'd . Kinda like a regular security high access clearance vault .... Let me know if I was right pls
That trick at the beginning, I know exactly what you did, but I can't figure out HOW you did it. I'm going to have to play around and see if I can piece it together.
Chris Ramsay this is definitely my favorite outside of the v3s deck of first playing cards you've ever made I love the black bicycles my favorite Ryback color is black and silver so this is awesome that you made these thank you so much
There is no way I'd rank this a level 8 or 9 puzzle...I'd say it was definitely closer to a 5. It was...amusing...but it needs a bit of work for sure. The batarang was the best part about it, to me. Haha
I don't want to ruin the sleight, but 90% of what I have learned has come from you. You didn't flash, and I don't know what control you used, but I know when it happened and how you did the finish. It's still fun to watch. Love you, Ramsay!
Chris the only thing you can lift is a penny when it comes to brute force😂😂😂😂 what I mean is by the you to gentle and kind to use brute force on anyone or anything LOL😂😂😂😂😂 LOVE YOU CHRIS MY DREAM IS TO MEET YOU MY DREAM YOU TUBER AN AGAIN THANKS FOR EVRYTHING I WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU PUZZLE COLLECTION PLEASE MAKE A 35 SOON TO BE 36 YEAR OLD AUTISTIC MAN'S DREAM COME TRUE AND I'M ALSO REALLY IN TO MAGIC I'VE BEEN INTO MAGIC ALL MY LIFE I REMEMBER GETTING MY FIRST MAGIC SET WHEN I WAS 7 YEARS OLD THANKS AGAIN FOREVERYTHING LOVE YOU.
Riddler gotta be the easiest villain to find. Just look for the guy buying a metric fuckton of blacklight glow paint.
Problem is you may run into joker who does that a lot as well
@@rav3style turn blacklist glow paint into a controlled substance, I just fixed your crime problem Gotham *cracks knuckles*
Silly boy....He gets his paint from The Joker!
Gotham's Razor: If there are two suspects, it's usually the guy that buys the biggest metric fuckton of blacklight glow paint.
or just look for a guy in the bookstore looking at riddle books

For like $200 I'd expect much more. This thing looks like it would be on a Walmart shelf for $30-40
McFarlane Toys actually made a riddler puzzle box

Very 3D-printer-with-model-paint vibes. And for a CRUCIAL piece to be missing, especially one that nobody’s going to have on-hand?

Damn so I wasn't the only one to catch that and I don't even have the puzzle at home lol

They were right. It was a level 8. Out of 100. Really, they walk you through everything!
Who else remembers when Chris had that TV crew and all the special cameras to film him solve a puzzle and he accidentally did it in like a minute 😂
Where can I find this?
I don't. What video is it?

Love that time machine trick, love this puzzle!

Love the tour you taught us like 6 or 7 years ago ! The clock card movement is mesmerizing :)
I love the card trick. One of the coolest ones I’ve seen in a bit!!!
I love the puzzles but I also love you doing card magic. Truth be told, magic is how I found you years ago. You've got skills Chris, don't doubt it.
Good puzzle. Loved the Batarang. It was a bit too easy, finished in less than 17 minutes. Mine did not come with a blacklight either. Thanks for always being aweome! Love your content!
Nice shuffling at 0:38 but sorryyy, we can also see the two cards you flipped at 0:50 :D very lovely trick though
That second and slip at the top of the vid was gorgeous
200 bucks for a plastic puzzle that is cheaply made with a faulty mechanism for the big final reveal at the end? No thanks. This should be like 50 bucks tops.
The best thing about these is that you are decent enough to accept the fact that you may have made a mistake.
Humble and honest 👏
11:02 there another bar code at the end of the card. Maybe use it the other way? Or check if there is any other hidden hole like that one ? Maybe idk
Im really glad you did a video of this box!
I love the Riddler! He’s my favorite DC villain! *As I get flashbacks from playing the Arkham Games*…especially Arkham Knight. 😵💫 If you know, you know.
Anyhoo, you’re awesome Chris! Big fan of your channel! Keep it up!

Hey can you tell me the name of that one?
Love the alphanumeric keypad on the puzzle box!
If it was recorded I wouldn't of seen the move. Bit I can't do those tricks. Loved it
I liked that double lift at the beginning of the video. Nice
I was like "THE CARDS" thank god you noticed will editing. Fun puzzle 😊
Never thought the day would come when the Puzzler would outsmart the Riddler.
Thanks Chris! Always enjoy a good video from you. My thoughts on the puzzle alone? A bummer of a puzzle for a level 8 even though it's meant for everyone.

You needed to put the keycards in the slot when you put in the 4digit code for the shelf to pop out...
Ok so I want to set some things straight about this product, firstly it was said that this wouldn’t have a black light included although they didn’t make that obvious. Also with the little card puzzle you Linda just had to jam it in until it went in, which I gotta say isn’t the best type of quality but it works fine for me.

i miss the little explodey animation
I think if you had placed the key card in the slot then punched in the numbers it might have popped open. But this was a sweet puzzle.
I love having your videos on well i am at work. Took a few days off and the paperwork backed up while i was gone.
Sort of cool and fun, but yeah, definitely not an 8.
Love the time travel trick, my double lift technique needs some help though lol, I get caught by my teens every time
Wow that was some beautiful slight of hand
Hey Chris, have you ever done a video where you explain what the levels mean?
Obviously 10 is hard and 7 is not so hard, but what to do those objectively relate to?
Dear Chris, love your videos showed you to many friends and family always loved puzzles myself not even close to your level but I appreciate everything!
"Level 8 puzzle" (Newspaper clipping with a year "To open this... type the year...") Such a hard puzzle wow!
Sweet Batarang, pretty slick puzzle!
You still made it fun Chris!
I was typing this comment and just as I was about to hit send, you figured out the key card thing! Good on you!
Palming that 3 of hearts was superb 🩵
Hey I just wanted to say I am a big fan of your stuff and have been for a while. I just wanted to say thank you. Also are you feeling better and did you get reinspired.
Dude I could watch the card trick 100 times so cool 👌🏻
I dare you to record yourself throwing the finished batarang at a wall and try to get it to stick in there
For the last tray to pop out u leave the cards that u put together in the slit in the others side then put the code in
Just so you know bro, we appreciate your passion for videos solving puzzles and I watch every one you pt out. Don't think for a second that taking time for yourself could be an issue cause I can wait. You're videos are just tat good, 👌👍
Loved this video and my pack of cards arrived today! Thanks for all the amazing content @ChrisRamsay52 x
Thanks for a new puzzle video.
I Love how clueless I am to how the magic at start work. 🤔
The final box springs out better if you remove the plastic batarang piece holder first
You messed up the keypad, which is probably why it didn't open. The clue said to forget the bat, calls the birds and the cat, and it also says they need to be in a specific order. 7:28
Think they meant made for 8 year olds, not level 8.
I love this Cards - nice Video, bad Box. Thank you very much!

Watched that and thought, eh, probably around 50 bucks, thats not so bad. Clicked the link and $152!!!!!! WTF!!! Absolutely not worth that for a plastic box with like 4 puzzles!
I would have tried the dark light on the other side of the joined cards.
Super cool concept, but it seemed way too easy. You made it fun, though. Love the videos.
Always a good day when Chris has a puzzle video ♥️
Crazy for them to call this an 8 lol. Cute puzzle, but they made it way to easy
So for the last box I'm thinking to have the spring open you had to put the access cards into the slot when you dialed the number.
By the way , when I looked at this I'm pretty sure that the box would have popped open had you left in the Bruce Wayne and matching I'd card that had a ? Mark on it then dialed the code or even the other way bc the clue had the dial cat and penguin thing and then the ?with the box around it for the I'd . Kinda like a regular security high access clearance vault .... Let me know if I was right pls
This looks like something you would order from Amazon.
Actually, the bird is Robin, since Dick Grayson became the first Robin after his parents were killed
glad you self corrected I was going to mention it
That card trick was cool
i like how he called a boomerang and not a batarang at first
Im very good at seeing magic trick but its so hard to proform them that was extremely clean i know what u did but clean AF
I wonder if the card had to be in the slot for the latch to open properly 🤔
If you had watched until the end of the video you would know the answer. ;)
That trick at the beginning, I know exactly what you did, but I can't figure out HOW you did it. I'm going to have to play around and see if I can piece it together.
I love your vids keep doing what you're doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those cards are nice!
Kinda cool, $150 USD seems a little much for a plastic toy.
can i just say that magic trick blew my mind
There is no way I'd rank this a level 8 or 9 puzzle...I'd say it was definitely closer to a 5. It was...amusing...but it needs a bit of work for sure. The batarang was the best part about it, to me. Haha

3, 6,9,4 then insert the joined cards that make the "?"
The #'s unlock the box, the card activates the spring, to open the door?
Chris, thank you for the new video. I hope that you are taking care of your mental/physical health first and foremost. Happy Thanksgiving.
To be fair it's easy to overlook these things, but, man still had to force a draw... For an easy puzzle dude got stumped lmao
I think all the money went into the batarang
I would love it for being a batman fan but dunno about the price on how easy it looked
Makes complete sense lore wise a riddler puzzle box would be lvl 8
bro wene he just forced open the drawr instead of actually putting the key in and typing it in got me dying
Great video, as always. thank You.
