    These are available on Taobao now. From the original producer. They have their own store.

    Not sure if anyone outside of China is stocking these.

    I can't seem to find these anywhere other than that link. And I don't know how trustworthy Taobao is. Does anyone know of a better place to buy them?

    I got one for a friend from Taobao. Chatting to the seller of that store, it's actually them producing and selling them. If that's the case, not sure if there is a western market source for this.

    Hm. How about the Taobao seller? Any issues? How long will it take to arrive? Typical Chinese expectancy? Sorry for all the questions!

    The Taobao seller shipped quickly, like all Taobao sellers. Taobao will only ship domestically to an international fulfillment warehouse. You then have to pay an international shipping fee from there (in addition to the purchase and local shipping cost). All up, it shouldn't take longer than 2 weeks in general.

    Have a look in the buying on Taobao thread in these boards. Loads of helpful info there on buying on Taobao

    I guess no one is. I tried the link just now, got an error page stating it wasn't shipping. Disappointing new- have waited several months since the summer announcement and was excited to grab these.

    It's definitely shipping, I got one for a friend. If you're familiar with Taobao, best to message the seller as the 'Hasbro' wording in the listing automatically blocks the item from being purchased due to geographical licensing.

    The seller will create a bogus link to collect the money and they'll send you the puzzle you're after.
