Waddington’s, a UK brand, was one of the first to do Limited Edition Christmas Puzzles. They became collector’s items and proved to be so popular that now many puzzle brands do a limited edition Christmas puzzle of their own. Waddington’s stopped producing puzzles for a few years, but fortunately their Christmas puzzles were picked up and restarted by another company. This page lists all the Christmas puzzles that I’m aware of. The new ones can be purchased from Amazon.co.uk and shipped worldwide. The older ones can be hard to find. Ebay is your best bet.

I see you haven’t updated your site with the last 2 years of these puzzles so thought I’d add the titles, I can if you don’t have them also provide a photo of them if required.
2018 – Santa’s Grotto – this edition was also a foiled puzzle
2019 – Christmas Jumpers
As far as a release goes for 2020 this is proving to be very difficult so I’m not even sure if there is one, I have contacted the company who took over the production of these puzzles and now waiting for a reply.
I think 2020 is called Deck The Halls; can buy it from The Works.
Yes thanks Katy, I ended up finding it on Amazon so bought it straight away, I then got a reply from the suppliers who informed me of The Works, cheaper too but too late not that I am bothered just happy to have found it and got it.
I have the 2001 Xmas edition
I now have every single one since these started
How much to buy them . Got two of them
Hi Linda, sorry for late reply but a little confused, do you mean to buy them from a store? if so then it really depends on which store you can find them, the older the jigsaw the more expensive they become, it took me a number of years of searching for my missing ones and the very 1st didn’t come cheap at all, or are you asking me how much I’d sell them for? sorry but ours are not for sale as I buy them for my husband each year, I did get most of mine over the years mainly from Ebay if that helps.
Please can anyone help me? I still haven’t been able to get the 2020 Deck the Halls limited edition jigsaw. I tried the Works, both online and in store and they have been out of stock since Mid-December. Does anyone have the details of the company who now manufacture them please, as I get them each year for my mum, and am desperate to get her this one as well. Many thanks.
sorry for the late reply Dawn, the manufacturer doesn’t actually sell them as I tried that, if the Works are still out of stock then try amazonUK as that is where I got mine from………good luck
Thank you for replying. I will keep trying and looking on Amazon. Many thanks, Dawn
