May the Fourth Be With You, Everybody! I saw this puzzle come up on my local Facebook Puzzle Group and I knew immediately that I wanted to do it for today.
I'll be honest though, I almost didn't post this video. The day that I filmed it was really cloudy and because the clouds were moving in front of the sun and then away, the lighting was all over the place. That's not so much of an issue if this was a regular video but with a time-lapse, it's obvious. That's all to say, this isn't up to my preferred standards. I have been planning this particular puzzle since the start of my channel so I'm going ahead with posting it. Now I know not to film on cloudy days and to plan out these theme/holiday puzzles in advance so I have time to refilm it or do something else if I run into another issue. 😅
Onto the puzzle! This was my first Ravensburger Challenge but it didn't feel like too much of a challenge to me. That could be because I knew the characters having been a fan of the show and so it was easier to identify where the pieces would go. Still, I've seen some pretty challenging Ravensburger Challenge puzzles and this one was definitely on the easier side of the series. The Darth Vader Challenger puzzle (linked further down) looks like an incredibly spicy puzzle and a true challenge.
This is one of the few puzzles where I started putting together some elements before the edge. The faces were just too tempting and I had to put them together right away. There aren't a ton of colors on this puzzle but there are enough variations within them that you can fairly easily group all the pieces to specific characters together. The hardest color to differentiate was probably the blues but still, each character was slightly a different shade and there wasn't much variation on the characters themselves. I think it's funny that the last character I built was Mando himself.
As this was a Ravensburger, the quality was top notch. Pieces went together nicely, the finish wasn't too glossy, you could move small sections around fairly easily.
