Look what I just got in the post

Was there anything in it or do you have to do the equivalent of Great Pyramids archaeology to find anything in it?

Wow that's cool. Have you managed to get it open yet?

There are some really oddly translated instructions - or are they details about how it was made? I don't know if it is supposed to be opened or taken apart or smashed or just left alone!

I think it's supposed to be opened but they all open in a different way, I suggest this method:

According to Wikipedia inside should be some kind of good luck charm, please let us know what happens!

My mother's face just lit up when I showed her the trick box. She says she has one from Hong Kong which she was given as a child and wore down over the years.

The idea is you feel around the box, gently pushing and pulling secret panels out so as to deconstruct it completely.

I will have a go later - just admiring the details. It is amazing!

They sure don't put these kind of puzzles in Kinder Eggs!

Se7en is such a good film.

The idea is you feel around the box, gently pushing and pulling secret panels out so as to deconstruct it completely.

sounds like definitely something i would do.

Oh good, a mysterious puzzle box. What's the worst that could happen?

Ask Frank from Hellraiser - hopefully yours plays nursery-rhymes and all that gooey stuff.

I'm scared now. Don't want to open it alone.

To the tune of Humpty Dumpty, fret not.

OMG - stop! Seriously, I am a total wool-bag when it comes to scary things.

Have you ever seen Twin Peaks?

Tried, but failed to watch a whole episode.

I just attempted to open the box. Gave up after 5 mins. Worried I might break it thus unleashing the raging spirit of doom and destruction.

I think in Twin Peaks two people got into a pulling match with one, then in trying to pull it out of each others hands they dropped it on the floor and a bit popped out.

You could try that.

However, it contained the key to a safety deposit box, which had a bomb inside it.

So, you might not want to.

Could work.

Any volunteers?

are we doing the map missmouse? I just realised I volunteered to create north bit but forgot...

I love hellraiser btw

This is a bit of an odd one. My old work place recently emailed to say a parcel had arrived for me from Japan. I had no recollection of ordering anything. Nor do any of my friends live there now. Furthermore, it's addressed to Allie not Alex. Really weird.

So anyway, I collected it from the post depot today and don't really know what to make of it or do with it - does anyone on here?

Behold my beautiful Oka Craft Japanese Mosaic Puzzle Box:

did you open it yet?

surely all you do is push the panel starting with 1 on the diagram a little bit, then 2, then 3 all the way around in sequence until you reach 18

I thought so too but that doesn't work.

"Do not soak". Maybe something Gremlins-esque will pop out.

Pair of brand new Rival shifters arrived today, £105 from Cheesecake_intl. Thanks.

what kind of box were they in?
