I received my signature Tess today, Saturday, September 14, 2013. It is 8/50. My partner ordered it as last year's Christmas present on November 8, 2012. So I am having Christmas in September! The puzzle is beautiful and is like previous, heavy and very well made. Hope all of you waiting get yours soon!

If they did then I dont know what kind of criteria they are using. Now I will say that it is possible mine is in transit and I have not recieved a shipping email. That has happened before with orders but I don't want to send daily emails to sonic like a 10 year old asking "has it shipped yet.. has it shipped yet".

:lol: now that was funny!

I ordered my signature Tess on Oct. 1. 2012, and received yet nothing (no package, no email, no tracking number). However I'm on the announced list of this week's shipping, and I know that it takes for a package a week or even more to arrive from UK, so I assume mine is in transit now.
Generally I don't really understand what's the big hurry here, and why all the people thinks that their order was among the firsts. We all know that they're doing their best at Sonic to serve all orders, and that the puzzles are well worth the wait. So let's not loose head now, those few weeks more waiting is nothing compared to the delays from the first announce.


Funny was kind of what I was going for :D . We all would really like to get our puzzles but lets face it none of us know just how many have been ordered. I would love to have mine tomorrow but I think we are dwelling on this topic way too much. So far for the ones that have responded it sounds like they are being shipped out fairly close to when they were ordered. Are there going to be a few discrepancies, sure there are, and is it possible that a some were jumped ahead on the list sure it is. But lets put on our grown up pants and take things as they come and not taint the thrill of getting the Tessarisis and the Tarka with all kinds of animosity about waiting. When I posted the original my intention was not to start a riot but to get a few of those that have waited longer than me to chime in and show that there are still many of us that are still waiting and most of those are waiting patiently. Hopefully they will keep updating us with the shipping list so we can have an idea of when they will be arriving. So can we get back to having some good positive posts please.. pretty please.. pretty please with chocolate and cherries on top.

oh and Gary congrats on recieving yours :) sounds like your going to have a good September Christmas.

'Tis done (although it took a good while) :D . More fiendish that the Tessarisis in many repects but equally nicely made :D .

that is way cool... I can't wait to add mine to the puzzle shelf.. I had to devote a shelf just to the isis series.. you have no idea how many people come to visit and are just in awe of how involved they can get. In fact I should have two KuKu's in the mail today ;) I got lucky to get them from an over stock seller!!

Are you talking about the spelling T42ka? ok so i might have missed it.. why is one black and the other gold?

Took me a moment to spot the difference - it doesn't appear to affect the function, just the aesthetics and the nice link/connection/theme.
