#tangle jumbo

Tangle Update!

Since the last time I showed y'all I got a Tangle Original and a Zebra Tangle Jr™!!!!

They have the Tangle Jumbo!

Also multicoloured Tangle Jrs, translucent Tangle Jrs, wooden robot puzzle, many spinners, putty, snake puzzle, yoyo puffer ball, spaghetti ball, wooden cube puzzle, mind teaser puzzles, metal slinky, cube maze puzzle and many stress balls. I love this koala stress ball!

They only offer a single free sample to US residents up to $7 USD in price. Additional samples are available for an additional cost. I have no idea how difficult it is to get said sample or how much evidence one must provide in doing, or how much you might live to regret giving them your email and shipping address, but Tangle Jumbo. I’m sure some folks will want to give this one a try.

Thank you so much, anon!

Awesome. I must have missed them before, so thank you, anon!

Here’s the link for epromos’ Tangle Jumbo, which means our Canadian followers can request a free sample, too.

I can’t find anywhere that sells just standard tangle jumbos. The closest I can find is on websites that sell marketing things for businesses, which appears to be the same product just a strange way to get it. Most of them require at least 100 to be ordered, but a few allow you to buy samples. I have no idea if they have anything printed on them or not. If anyone’s interested in that, these are the ones I found: 3.55 USD on Motivators, 3.85 USD on Art Promos, and 4.36 USD on Go Imprints. Shipping in the US is 10 USD for Motivators, 7.99 USD for Art Promos, and 12.99 USD for Go Imprints, which is outrageous considering it’s one item and all of these are US based.

Another thing which is similar but not quiet the same is textured tangle jumbos. Those are more common, for reasons I don’t even begin to understand [I’ve seen many a tangle jumbo, but never anyone even talking of a textured tangle jumbo.] You can find them for 14.40 USD on Sensory Education, 15.95 USD on Fat Brain Toys, 19.95 USD on Hallmark, 19.99 USD on Fidget Club, and 24.55 USD on Thinking Toys. I converted everything to USD for uniformity, but Sensory Education is based in the UK and Thinking Toys in Ireland.

The tangle jumbo is certainly jumbo. It’s a little less than twice the size of a tangle jr in terms of length, and the links themselves are more than twice as thick. I don’t think there’s the possibility of being discreet with a tangle jumbo like there is with smaller tangles, just because of it’s size. It works just the same as other tangles, a very fun toy to twist and turn, an easy thing to grab when you need to fidget. It isn’t any louder than the tangle jr classics, just some clicks when the links hit each other. The only difference is that it’s upscaled.

Mod note: If anyone’s looking for the Tangle Jumbo now that Office Playground is lost to us, CD has put together a seriously well-linked post! Thank you so much, CD!

[image description: a yellow, red, green and purple Tangle Jumbo, comprised of eighteen plastic macaroni-like links that click together to make a loop that can be twisted, turned and coiled. The image shows the Tangle coiled into four upright loops and one flat loop resting on the ground. One red link bears the Tangle logo and copyright information in silver text.]

For Aussies wanting the Tangle Jumbo, there’s a listing available at Sister Sensory for $15 AUD, but they’re wanting another $15 AUD for shipping within Australia. (Australia Post is bad, but I don’t think they’re quite that bad for one Tangle, even with registering and tracking.)
