Star Trek 50th Anniversary

Aquarius
3000 pieces
32" x 45"
purchased new from Amazon ($30), but the seam is miscut and there was a missing piece (EDIT: missing piece was found after I had disassembled the puzzle :()
Difficulty level: not difficult at all, but it's a fun build
I think I've done all of Aquarius' Star Trek puzzles, and was thrilled to see them produce something at a larger, more challenging size. The puzzle is really striking, when finished, but unfortunately there are some production problems.
When I was assembling the border I realized that the seam between the two halves was misaligned, which was confirmed when I got more of the puzzle done:
A very fun puzzle, very disappointing about the quality. I have done several puzzles from Aquarius and didn't have any problems, but clearly their move to the larger size caused some problems. Hopefully they will work out the production kinks and keep doing these big puzzles. Would be fun if they did a big 3000 collage for Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise as well.
