Wish List: Metamorphose (Selegiochi, 3000pc)

Image via puzzle-forum.de

What we have here may be a strong contender for the world's most narrow puzzle: an M.C. Escher print that is almost 20x (!) as wide as it is long.

Manufactured by Italy-based Selegiochi, the puzzle is cut into 3000 pieces and divided into 4 panels. When each panel is complete and placed side by side, the final puzzle measures over 13 feet wide and 8 inches tall.

The puzzle is available on Amazon for a whopping $400 (and then an extra $50 for shipping). I'm not feeling particularly inclined to spending this amount on 4 x 750 piece puzzles, which is essentially what it is, so the fun stops here for now. However, if you're interested in further reading, head to swappuzzles.com for a detailed write-up.
