Ooo, quite a haul there and some interesting puzzles. 👍 Good to know that you received the Around the World from me. 😊 I am hoping that you will do that puzzle on your channel so that I can see how you get on with it. I thoroughly enjoyed doing it myself. Springbok puzzles have really thick pieces and are quite tight fitting from what I remember when doing the very few I have. Have a great Christmas and I will look forward to your next video whenever that is.
Thank you! And thank you again for sending the puzzle! I am looking forward to giving it a try, I think it looks like a challenge, but I’m looking forward to it! I have also heard this about Springboks - particularly the older ones, I am intrigued to try out that one. Have a lovely Christmas and happy new year! 😍
I wish there were more Harry Potter puzzles that were illustrations and not just a collection of pictures from the movies. That franchise is full of cool moments that could made beautiful illustrations for puzzles. What a missed opportunity!
I never thought of that, but you’re right, a lot of the HP puzzles seem to be collages or mini images. I am looking forward to this one, but I would also love to see an iconic scene from the movies on a puzzle too - that would be awesome! 🤩
I am currently working on the Trefl Greatest Disney Collection and I love it. I am doing it in the 1500 pc bags and will put it together in the end. I love the smaller piece size and have no trouble with them. One of my other favorites is a Trefl 1000pc Minions panorama puzzle. Same little pcs. Enjoy when you get to it!!
I love to see your channel grow Vicky. Congrats on the 20k. I really like the image of the 4000 piece Japanese puzzle and have been dying to buy it but I've held back because I've a huge to do pile and I need to go through it before I buy more. Can't wait to see you build it.
Thank you! I am so happy with how the channel is growing, and so appreciative of all of your support 😍. The Japanese puzzle is lovely, I am really looking forward to it - I also have a huge to do pile, so I totally understand your predicament on that one 😆
I've had a backorder on puzzles galore for months it finally arrived after the last puzzle launched and one was cancelled so I got the circle of colours puzzle the ocean one and the new york postcard along with the Wednesday Nevermore circle puzzle. I am only after the Sicily chairs puzzle from this years competition. I have the Karen puzzles Gradient cascade on the way.
Yay! Glad your puzzles finally arrived. I enjoyed the Sicily chairs puzzle and built it twice overall, but I was happy to pass that one on to my Stepdad, and he really enjoyed it 😍. I hope you enjoy all your new puzzles x
Looking forward to seeing the 9000pc Trefl puzzle. I just added that one to my Amazon list a couple of weeks ago! :) Congratulations on 20k subscribers! I've been watching you since you first started your channel! It's been fun watching your channel grow. :)
Aaw! Thank you for being with me from the start, that really means a lot to me 😍 I’ve had so much fun working on it and seeing it grow, but I definitely couldn’t have done it without you and all of my supporters ❤️
Hi Vicky - I bought the Educa 4000 Savannah Coming to Life and it should arrive in the next couple of days. Looks like a beautiful puzzle. I saw that Disney one and almost bought it then decided I had enough LOL. I'm sure you will enjoy all of the puzzles in that haul.
I’m sure I will! I generally do love all of the puzzles that I have a go at 😍. That’s great you got Savanna - I hope you enjoy that one, I loved Entering the Bedroom and I get the feeling this one might be a similar experience. The Disney one I never expected to get, but I couldn’t pass up the bargain on it. So now I have another giant one in the to do pile! 😆
Another 28,000+ pieces to put together! The buildings on that 5,000 piece puzzle (and the other one that you mentioned) are very similar to the ones on Educa’s around the world.
Yes, I have enough to last me a lifetime now I think 😆 I agree, they are similar to Around the World, although I don’t think Adrian Chesterman is the artist on the Ravensburger. A lot of the same landmarks and buildings tend to get used in these large landmark style puzzles.
How is the large count dragon puzzle coming along ? I really liked that one. I'm looking forward to getting a copy of the Boston puzzle I think it looks fun when you don't have to speed run it........ Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !
I haven’t had much chance to work on it because of other puzzle commitments in December, but I am eager to get back to it soon. I am loving it as well 😍. I 100% agree, the Boston puzzles looks fun to do without the speed puzzling element involved 😆 Merry Christmas to you too and a happy new year! X
Another great puzzle haul! I’m really looking forward to seeing your video for the 9000 piece Trefl puzzle; I like the fact that the sections are grouped by Disney movie’s year of release. The “Around the World” puzzle looks interesting too. I’ve seen puzzles with images of pieces before certainly, but not ones with images of some other puzzle. It looks fun! Happy puzzling! 🧩
Thank you! I like that as well, and I’m looking forward to giving a large piece count Trefl a try 😍 The Around the World one actually looks like it might be quite tough, but I’m looking forward to trying out the brand - thank you so much for watching and for your support on Patreon - I really appreciate it! Happy puzzling! ❤️
Oh that Kimono one looks lovely! Hoping you might do it on a video, even if it's just a short timelapse. I'm trying to get my mom to measure her table so I can figure what puzzle I can bring to my folks over Christmas, and after the holidays I'm going to get started on the Clementoni 6K Venice Sunset puzzle, which is the biggest I've ever done, so I'm really looking forward to that! Happy holidays Vicky, and thank you for a year of puzzle videos!
I will do a video on the kimono one, definitely, and probably a timelapse as well! Yay! A family Christmas puzzle - that sounds so fun 😍. I loved the Venice Sunset puzzle, I think you’ll really enjoy it. 6k is a lot of pieces, but there are lots of areas to work on and sort into so it’s a fun one, and not stressful I found 😍 Happy holidays to you too! You are most welcome, and I hope you have a happy new year x
I am really looking forward to getting my hands on that Boston puzzle. I hope it is released in North America soon. I happen to have that same Springbok Pixel one - haven't done it yet, also got it at a thrift store. I also have the Trefl 9000 Disney to try - I love that fit technology idea.
Yes, I was so happy to have managed to get the Boston puzzle. They are supposed to be out soon I think, I don’t know when though - hope it gets released soon for you. Yes the fit technology is an interesting one, something I haven’t seen before certainly! I am really looking forward to the Springbok - let’s hope all of our pieces are there 😍
hi vicky. i have the 4000 pc japanese ladies puzzle. i keep looking for the boston puzzle, i cant wait to get my hands on that one ! thank you for sharing your haul with us puzzle fanatics lol. merry xmas to you and your family. from paula's puzzling life x
Hi Paula! Yes, I was so happy to get a copy of the Boston puzzle. It really does seem like it will be fun without having to speed run it! Merry Christmas to you and your family also x
Boy what a haul!!! Any one of those puzzles would be fun to watch you do. Congratulations on your enormous achievement with 20k followers!!!! Everyone sees how you work!
Thank you so much Ruth! As always you are so lovely and I really appreciate your support on Patreon! I hope you have a lovely Christmas and a happy new year!
Oh wow you have so much opportunity for jigsaw puzzles. Back here in New Zealand I cant find anything like a haul and even had to pay $44 each for 2 Ravensburger 500 piece puzzles from the Worlds heats 1 and 6 when at the time of the Worlds they were on our market hiked price for over $60 each.
I am lucky here in the UK that I can get hold of a wide variety pretty easily and for a reasonable price. I know it can be difficult in NZ. Donnalouise, from For the Love of Puzzles has chatted to me about this before. It must be frustrating. $60 seems mighty steep!!
As a Pole living 30 miles away from the Trefl headquarters, don't get too excited about the unlimited fit from Trefl.. I've done their cities series and they don't line up very well, so now I'm terrified for this 9k Disney that's also sitting in my to-do pile.. I was also shocked (and frankly disappointed) to find out how tiny they are! Let us know when you start it, I've been looking for a push to get started on them, currently I'm working on the 5000 artistic Mickey you've done as well so that's taking up all the room anyways...
I am working on the 13500 Trefl (journey of 1000 miles) and I love it. I was disappointed to see the size of the pieces at first, but they are so soft to the touch and the colors are so bright that it is a pleasure to puzzle it. They are no false fits and the image has so many different textures that you always know where the pieces belong.
Ah that’s a shame! I hope the fit isn’t too bad on mine, I’m sorry to hear that it was on yours. I am a little nervous about the tiny pieces as well, but we’ll see how it goes, I can always put my glasses on! 😆 I will, of course, let you know once I get started on it - not sure when that will be yet, but I’ll let you know. Yay on the Mickey puzzle - I loved that one! I hope you are enjoying it 😍
The correct pronunciation of the Spanish artist is "Mershe" "Albijo" Vega. Merche is the diminutive of Mercedes. I do like that Disney puzzle. Because, I´ve I said before, I only like Disney puzzles when they have only Disney characters. I despise when they mix them with Pixar characters or even The Nightmare Before Christmas one. And nothing against them. But if I wanted a Pixar puzzle I´d get a Pixar puzzle. By the way, it´s great that you really like Harry Potter. I´m guessing that if your´re British you´d better, at least, like the Wizarding World otherwise too bad for you. ;)
I had a feeling I wouldn’t get it quite right! Thank you for that ☺️ I see your point, it’s good if the Pixar ones are together rather than jumbled with the traditional Disney. I’m not certain if I’ve done many where they are mixed together or not - I never really noticed! I certainly don’t think I’d mix Nightmare before Christmas in though. I do indeed love the Wizarding world! I am a Ravenclaw myself 😁
I built my first 9000 piece on 9 pieces of A1 foamboard. Now I am fortunate enough to have my own puzzle room and a large MDF board, which will take a 6000 piece puzzle. I am doing my current 9k in two sections so they fit nicely on the board 😍
That’s a shame you feel that way, because since starting memberships and indeed, since I started the channel, I feel that I have maintained a steady flow of free content on the main channel with no reduction. Furthermore, all of the content that I produce for the minimal prices of the membership tiers are created in addition to what I already produce. There is no obligation to join as a member, but those that do pay a little, provide direct financial support to help maintain the channel as a whole, contributing towards the, often hefty, costs of filming and creating videos like this. In return, they receive some extra perks. As a creator who puts a lot of thought, time and effort into all my videos, I truly appreciate this extra support. Of course, I appreciate the support of all of my followers too, whether they are members or not, and as such, I continue to put the videos out on the main channel with the same frequency I did before.
Great haul! Have a very happy holiday with your family!!
Happy holidays to you and yours as well! Thank you so much for😍
🎉 Congratulations 🎊 on your 20 k subscribers!
The kimono puzzle would be lovely to watch you do.
Thank you so much!
I’m also really looking forward to having a go at the Japanese collage - I love the colours in it 😍
Great collection of puzzles in the queue!
Thank you! I’m looking forward to all of them! 😍
Congrats on 20k!!! So many great puzzles! Well maybe just one isn’t all that great - I’m sure you can guess which one 🤣🤣
Ha ha! I think I can 😆 I’ll see how I get on with it, may end up launching it out of the window before the end 🤣 xx
Ooo, quite a haul there and some interesting puzzles. 👍 Good to know that you received the Around the World from me. 😊 I am hoping that you will do that puzzle on your channel so that I can see how you get on with it.

I've been eyeing that 5000 ravensburger puzzle for months now.😅 It's gorgeous
Yes, I really like it - I think I got a bargain on it too - it shot back up again after the Black Friday sale!
Congratulations on 20k. Love your videos!!
Thank you so much! 😍
Incredible puzzle haul! Love the Harry Potter one and the 4000 piece Educa ones!
Me too! The person who gifted them to me has extremely good taste! ❤️
Excited you got your first Springbok puzzle, and a vintage one at that You’ll either love it or hate it. I personally love springbok puzzles. 🧩
Ha ha! Love it or hate it? I think I’ll enjoy it, but we shall see 😍

Yes! I am really really intrigued to try those wooden puzzles, and the Whistle Dog is also my favourite among them 😍

je ne sais pas à quoi correspond la date 1956 inscrite sur la boite puisque le tableau de Manet "le chemin de fer" date de 1873.
Yes, this confused me a little as well - I am uncertain what that particular year refers to 🤔
I use to watch but now you need to pay to see anything. Very disappointed.
