3D Plastic Jigsaw Puzzles
Just know this when you are assembling one of the common known Wrebbit foam 3D puzzles. There is Wrebbit 3D AND Wrebbit / Puzz3D. They both produced the same types of 3D puzzles. That said…. We got the inside info for Wrebbit 3D jigsaw puzzles. They are back to producing in Canada again since 2012 with fantastic new images and themes. I was unaware of the history in the Company until I asked if I could post a Wrebbit Puzz 3D on their Facebook page. They politely declined my request with good reasons. Turns out the inventor of the former Wrebbit / Puzz3D company was sold in 2005 so all previous models and puzzles branded Puzz3D became the property of the buying company. The new owners closed all activities of Wrebbit in Canada and moved the production to the USA and stopped shortly thereafter. So in 2012, former employees of Wrebbit decided to relaunch the company under a new but familiar name, Wrebbit 3D. They have designed over 20 different models with many more to come. AND Wrebbit 3D puzzles are back to being produced in Montreal, Canada. Now that’ s an interesting tidbit indeed! Now they have also started a Poster Puzzle Series that includes Harry Potter The Previous Wrebbit / Puzz 3D I did not have an opportunity to try the ‘ new ’ Wrebbit 3D’ s yet but I do have this terrific Wrebbit Puzz-3D - check this out:

Title: Monopoly Game

Pieces: 755 foam cut

The Wrebbit Puzz3D Monopoly jigsaw puzzle is also a fully functional game. Research shows it being sold from $50 to over $200.00 online. The images on the website share the details included with the product.
The bank holds the money and property cards very conveniently. The hotels and houses have their own little containers. Even the dice are made of foam pieces and the original dice are included.
The entire game is completely organized to include as much jigsaw puzzle reproduction as possible.
It was my lucky day to locate this at the local Thrift store for $2.00. The back of the box shows the complete set up images and packaging. This Wrebbit Puzz3D was made in Canada (Montreal, Quebec) in 1998 being one of the early products before the company was sold and moved to the USA.
I have to admit that I was totally pumped to see this Monopoly jigsaw puzzle game on the shelf. As a youngster, we played the game for hours so there are many fun memories. Now to have it combined into a jigsaw puzzle too, I am delighted to play it again because as an adult it' s even more fun.
I am really impressed with this idea of combining the game and jigsaw puzzle together with the extra containers for the money, hotels, houses, dice, treasure chest, railroads and other signs. The whole package is conveniently compacted together. Even the Jailhouse is so fun with the drop in from the top to the opening door at the side.
This is one I do highly recommend for a 3D jigsaw puzzle plus you get the dual action of playing the game with all the extras! A rare treasure find here!
