Product Description

The Sears Tower is one of Chicago’s most iconic landmarks that stands at 1,450 feet and is typically recognized by its unique box-like architectural design. The original purpose of the building was for it to be one of the largest office buildings in the world to cater to the blustering economic growth of the country and increasing aspirations of the people. This Puzz 3D Sears Tower also glows in the dark with its surface reflecting the Chicago night-life, and the finished puzzle boasts incredible attention to detail with the window designs of the piece showing a reflection of what the surrounding city of Chicago would look like. The package comes with 6 cardboard supports and 532 puzzle pieces, and the puzzle stands at over 3 feet tall when completed.

I'm a great fan of Puzz-3D. Since a was a child, I have been collecting them. Let's just say I have a mini city in my house (17 structures to be exact)and I have this particular structure. If your not into puzzles/piecing stuff 2gether this is not for you...I REALLY enjoy this product it's somewhat of a brain teaser, just when u think u have the ONE piece for the next, it really isnt the one, so u have to start all over again. It stands from the ground up, up to my waist and im 5'11". It's great fun, and most definately addicting (a good addiction, lol). Try them out.
Great Challenge

This was my first 3-D puzzle ever, it was pretty challenging....i worked on it every evening after work and finished after about 4 days. I just really dig all of the classic sky scrappers, and it turned out quite nicely. I'm gonna get the rest of the skyscrapper puzzles and make my own skyline.
More fun than I expected

I am a big fan of Puzz-3D puzzles and own most of them. When I first saw this one I though it was uninteresting. Much plainer than a castle and lacking the color of most of the other puzzles. But my kids really like the real Sear Tower so I ordered it. Imagine my surprise when I discovered it glows in the dark (but it has to be really dark).

Because of the tall and narrow shape, putting this one together is an exercise in putting together the edges. The larger faces are more detailed than I expected as the windows have reflections of the surrounding city. Once the puzzle is together the actual assembly was a breeze. The straight sides and a clear order to proceed made assembly go smoothly and easily (much easier than the Empire State building).

I was also surprised to discover this is a part of a set of scale models of the world's most famous towers (which I am now going to have to locate). Once assembled, the nearly four-foot tower is quite impressive and in some ways is nicer than Big Ben (although less ornate). All of the towers in this series glow in the dark (although not as creatively as the Haunted House) but they need to be in very dark conditions to see it. The subtle differences in parts of the tower make the puzzle part more challenging than more varied puzzles so it may not be right for the beginner but it is far from impossible.
