I bought this puzzle 6 months ago, in April 2021, but only just put it together. It's a cool image, and not terribly challenging for a 3000 piece puzzle. Or it wouldn't have been1) first thing I notice is that pieces are dirty, like they got wet and puzzle dust stuck to them;2) around the middle of the puzzle, there is an obvious seam where the pieces don't line up and the puzzle is two completely different shades this goes all the way down the puzzle, but is most obvious at the top of Batman's cape;3) I'm missing 4 pieces, not a lot of chance for them to get lost while building and it would be a first in dozens of puzzles the last couple of years where I've lost not 1, but FOUR pieces in merely a week;4) the cut of the pieces is such that none really fit perfectly, so it's easy to put the wrong pieces together which is exceptionally obnoxious, especially when there are 3000 pieces that could all theoretically fit together.I almost quit building this after I noticed the dirty pieces, then after the wrong colors but I finished it just to write this review. And since I can't return it now anyway. Trust the bad reviews. Something went wrong at the factory, or these are fakes, or the Aquarius company has just gone downhill into awfulness. I won't be buying from them again, and certainly not at the premium I paid for this junk.
