Kodak’s gigantic new puzzle is one of the largest commercially available jigsaw puzzles at the time. This beast measures 6.25 ft (1.9 meters) in height and 28.5 ft (8.6 meters) in length. Not only that – it weighs a hefty 40 pounds (18.5 kg).

The puzzle features 27 wonders from all over the world with each one of them consisting of 1,900 pieces

The puzzle consists of 27 different sections, each one of which features a different wonder from all over the world. Each of the sections consists of 1,900 pieces and comes in a separate bag. However, this doesn’t these are 27 separate puzzles – each of them can be connected into one giant puzzle.

Some of the wonders include the Great Wall of China, the Eiffel Tower, and the Roman Colosseum

Some of the wonders include the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, Tower Bridge and Taj Mahal.

Kodak’s puzzle might be the largest “commercially available” puzzle out there but there are even bigger ones out there, like the 52,110-piece animal collage by Martin Puzzle and the 54,000-piece puzzle of a library by Grafika. Previously, the title of largest commercially available puzzle was held by Educa Borras’ puzzle titled Around The World that consisted of 42,000 pieces.

And while Kodak’s puzzle may be one of the largest commercially available puzzles, the title of most pieces in a jigsaw puzzle belongs to the students of Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics who put together a puzzle of a lotus flower consisting of 551,232 pieces. It measured at 48 ft 8.64 in by 76 ft 1.38 in (14.6 by 23.2 meters) and took up a whole sports hall.

While many of the online reviews of the puzzle are positive, others are saying that simply including 27 different puzzles and connecting them with a black outline is pretty lazy of Kodak.

The puzzle will set you back between $400 and $600 and will take you 16 to 21 days to finish – if you’re building it non-stop, of course.

Here’s what people had to say about this giant puzzle













Aušrys Uptas

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
