What should I do? It is very frustrating if you’re missing one or more pieces of a puzzle. Unfortunately we are unable to supply individual puzzle pieces. Please contact the retailer your purchased the jigsaw from, and ask them to replace the puzzle as there is a fault.

WASGIJ, which is “jigsaw” spelled backwards, is an innovative puzzle concept in which the picture on the box is merely a clue for the puzzle you will be putting together. The image on the box depicts a cartoonish scene of surprise and tumult. This 1000-piece puzzle is available in a variety of scenes.

The Wasgij images are a lot of fun. They’re filled with humor and have excellent illustration quality. In addition, the Wasgij puzzles are a unique challenge because you’re not putting together the image on the box but some variation of that.

The three puzzles are available now and are all 1,000 piece. The new puzzles are Original 28: Dropping the Weight!, Destiny 18: Fast Food Frenzy!, and Mystery 14: The Hound of Wasgijville! The brilliantly funny 1,000 piece Original 28: Dropping the Weight!

Graham Thompson was the original artist for the Wasgij range and he has been joined by James Alexander and Bill Houston who now share the credit for these famous, humorous puzzles. The brand was first introduced in 1997 and by 2001 the puzzle titled “Blooming Marvellous” was the 2nd best selling adult puzzle.

James Alexander has been a professional illustrator since 1982, although he showed great promise at the age of 2 when his first masterpiece came in the form of a large rainbow that was created by using wax crayons and running them across the wall in his parents’ dining room – a shining talent some might say!

First manufactured by Jumbo Games in 1997 the Wasgij puzzles have become the UK’s number one leading puzzle range. Starting with the Wasgij Original series there are now a few further variations on the puzzle concept.
