Frustrating 4D Puzzle

My family loved the New York 4D puzzle so much that we decided to make the US History 4D puzzle next. The basic puzzle isn't the best (a bit shaky, too many identical cuts, edge assembly was very confusing), but we managed. The foam layer was light, but the Rocky Mountains were too big for the map scale. However, the misplaced geography was a major disappointment to my family of geography lovers. The Everglades is not in North Carolina, the Liberty Bell is in Philadelphia and not in Washington, the Hemingway House is in Key West and not north of Miami, and many other relocated properties. No detail on Mount Rushmore's faces (at least it was included while Stone Mountain in Georgia was not included). While some of the expected features like the Statue of Liberty, Gate Arch, and Golden Gate Bridge were all present, many of the features included were of minimal importance, while more important features like Independence Hall, the Brooklyn Bridge, Kilauea Volcano, Niagara Falls, and Corn Palace among other things, were not there. I guess some of them have personal preferences, but this puzzle wasn't as satisfying as the first one.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember
