A very difficult box!  I received it from a collector in its current condition who was sure it was broken.  (They had never opened it.)  After some hints from Eric I did confirm it opens!  There are some marks on top of the splines from operating the mechanism. (See Photos)Buyer pays shipping and PayPal fees which will be calculated at end of auction. Thanks!Tim

He's therefore not sure he shoul...

Dan Fast wrote about it: "When I was designing Batman, as with all my designs, I imagine what I think it would look like when it is built. Pelikan has blown my mind away with their production. I never imagined how beautiful this puzzle was going to turn out. Being a level 25.8.8, I have to say this puzzle can be challenging. There are quite a few tricky moves, but the puzzle is absolutely solvable. This is not only a puzzle to me, this is a valued collectors piece!" 56 moves : (25.8.8.4.4....

Dan Fast wrote about it: "I designed the Superman and Batman puzzles when I heard the Superman VS Batman movie were coming out.
