From the Manufacturer Designed by Daniel Smith, this Puzzle marks the revival of the cherished Pastime Puzzle brand, featuring the return of unique puzzle piece shapes called Whimsies. What Are Jigsaw Whimsy Pieces? "Whimsies" add a whole new level to this popular indoor pastime and can make a puzzle a lot more fun. Whimsies are puzzle pieces cut into specific recognizable shapes, like flowers or animals. They got their name because they were originally cut according to the whims of the puzzle craftsman. Daniel Smith was born in Minnesota and now resides in Bozeman, Montana where the rugged peaks of the Gallatin Range are the only things separating him from Yellowstone National Park. One of the most rewarding and inspiring elements of his work is the fieldwork, and it is the genesis of all his paintings. Smith is passionate about his subjects, his surroundings and frequent travel provide artistic inspiration. Smith has won numerous awards form the Society of Animal Artists and has been chosen Artist of the Year for several conservation organizations.

Hey! Where are the usual and looked forward to whimsy pieces?
I've been building so many puzzles the past few months I'm getting a lot more selective and critical. I love Pastimes whimsy puzzles. This one did not fulfill the promise of all the previous Pastimes though. I was looking for the helicopter, the guy and girl, car, guitar, tower, mallet, etc.They were not there. I don't even think there were 30 recognizable whimsys in it. Who cut the images? If this is the way they are making them now they can count me out. Very dull and uninteresting experience for me.

Nice and easy
I nice puzzle for those who need immediate gratification. The designer pieces are fun and the overall experience satisfying if you are able as a better puzzler to go slow and allow beginners or slower workers their own satisfaction

Cute and fun puzzle!
Very cute puzzle design, and it was just challenging enough for a fun one-evening project. The puzzle piece shapes were a neat surprise, too! Looking forward to buying more puzzles from this company.

Missing Pieces
My family and I do lots of puzzles, but this was the first time I ever had any pieces missing from a brand new puzzle. I will not be purchasing any more puzzles by this manufacturer
