- [Disclaimer: This is NOT Bandai’s ULTIMAGEAR Millennium Puzzle]
Back in August 2020, I started learning 3D Modeling and printing to make one of my dreams, a playable Yu-Gi-Oh! Millennium Puzzle, a reality.
I’ve done many pieces of research about the existing models and none of them could match my expectations with how they assemble the puzzle, that was why I decided to create one on my own.
I tried to reach Shueisha (the copyright holder of Yu-Gi-Oh!) for licensing but apparently, they only wanted a big-name company to talk about this kind of stuff. So, I thought I would have to make a good-looking prototype first before talking to them again. (I understood this fully as anyone could just walk in and talk that they can do it, while in reality, not everyone can produce things to be looking properly)
I deciphered references from the manga and finally got my prototype ready to be made with metal casting.
The plan was to make this with brass, and it would cost a lot to mass-produce it, but I think that would be my best option to make it looks closest to the real thing.
I saw Bandai’s ULTIMAGEAR Millennium Puzzle last month as my friend was worried about me doing this project in vain, and yes, the Bandai’s one looks legit.
I have seen the disassembled pieces, and I was sure that the Bandai’s one would answer what I was waiting for. That’s why it’s very likely that I would have to CANCEL my project. However, since I have already made it as far as sending the model for brass casting, I will be posting this journey as a video.

when it takes yugi 8 years to solve this but this guy does it in 4 minutes
Yugi didn't even know what shape the finished puzzle was going to be, let alone knew the instructions. And then, of course, the biggest reason being that the Puzzle magically messes with your mind preventing you from solving it. I _assume_ this one doesn't have magical powers, anyway...
That's why Yugi has double mind and can do things why this guy can only post this on youtube :)
The puzzle yugi solve had 2x the amount puzzle pieces than this one
@@BloodrealmX even with his super AI, which can process the information unimaginably faster than human's mind, it still took a very long time - implying it was almost impossible for human to solve (or at least not in one's life time), even without magical power preventing you from doing so (i don't really remember it has this power, but it was still unnecessary).
I think the main reason he could do it was that he was destined to do so - tho I do remember one unworthy person (the black clown old man) who tried to solve it and almost got trapped in the labyrinth. Luckily, he let go of the puzzle in time and got away with his soul.
Note: the original script was that Muto Yugi would be the Blue Eyes wielder instead of Seto Kaiba - they changed it because Seto was much more marketable. It would make a lot of sense, because he would have been the one who shattered the puzzle, preventing the resurrection of Zorc before Atem could be resurrected. And since he would have been the one who did it, he would at least unconsciously recognize its true shape.
I'm glad at least he still showed up in the ceremonial duel instead of Seto tho
Edit: It was later revealed that their fathers were twins, which would make a lot of sense for them to look almost identical (if Seto didn't take the role)
and this would also fix a lot of plot holes, like the true identity of Muto Yugi (which many were led to believe he was Atem's reincarnation - but the 2 separate souls contradict this theory). And Muto Yugi inheriting the throne would also fit the event in the past (where he inherited the throne of Egypt) and in the present where he inherited the title of Yugioh (King of Games)
Se que lo dices en broma.. Oero también yigi lo arma al instante cuando lo rompen y encima en un incendio
I never thought you've beated Bandai by making an authentic metal version of the Millennium Puzzle. Definitely a one of a kind masterpiece.
Haha I'm still far from beating them
Juan Pablo. HLLo. H. UGOUDART432
It's cool that the inside kind of looks like a labyrinth while solving it. Almost like the puzzle is a pyramid itself.
Yeah, that's the intention I kept while designing the interior
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 I Wish The Puzzle Was BIGGER Like In The Anime
@@haileeraestout5567 I took the reference size from the previous product from Movic (10cm), and the Bandai one is also 10cm, so I think it's made as intended.
Man I'm honestly so sad about the Bandai one now after seeing this. The quality and hard work you put into this makes my heart race as we can all see the care and dedication you put into it. While in comparison the Bandai one is...hollow, both physically and emotionally.
That's probably going a bit too far but the evidence speaks for itself. You have all these little pieces and references that their version is going to lack. It's just a model to them to make money off of. Your's? It's an art piece.
Thank you for sharing this with us. You've made over 10k of us feel just a bit closer to the show we love. Rock on man.
Wow, your comment moved my heart. I can feel how much you love the series just by reading it. To be fair, I still the Bandai one is doing great as it's a mass product in the market, I will also have a video about it in the next coming weeks. So, definitely check it out when I post it :)
I'm not trying to discount all the hard work that went into this homemade millennium puzzle (because it's an *amazing* piece of work for a one-man project), but you couldn't have been farther from the truth with Bandai's Millennium Puzzle. After building it myself, it felt like the closest I'd ever been to stepping into the shoes of a childhood hero's experiences. Bandai's Puzzle is not only amazingly engineered with a very complex build, a tight fit and a very solid end result with the solved Puzzle, but equally as anime accurate with every piece involved. Just because it's made by a big company doesn't automatically mean "thing bad" y'know
The fact that you were able to make it out of metal is astounding!
Haha thanks
I can't imagine the amount of planning and designing that went into this project.
I've always wanted to see what a "functioning" Millennium Puzzle would be like, so in a sense you could call this my dream project (even if it isn't mine).
Thank you so much🙏
Thanks for such kind words :)
I truly appreciate the time and dedication you have poured into this (even when not comparing to the inferior version Bandai has made)
It moved my heart that you did everything you did. You literally brought our beloved fantasy to life.
I can only imagine what would happen if the casting was perfected. it would be an absolutely priceless masterpiece.
This is way better than the bandai one. From the looks of it that ones hollow (figures for cheap mass production). Your replica is more faithful and filled out
Thank you for your praise :)
All the more faithful when the one from the anime is actually 2kg, or 4.4 lbs. Imagine that on your neck
As an owner of the Ultimagear puzzle, I can say that yours is the superior one by far, at least in the category of accuracy. The ultimagear puzzle looks absolutely outstanding when fully assembled, but the interior is completely different from what we see in the manga.
Excellent work and an outstanding job for doing this yourself. When the Yu-Gi-Oh cartoon first came to the WB line up of Saturday morning shows I wasn't a fan at first but I watched one episode out of curiosity and when I saw it was about a card game I slowly became hooked on the show. It's a shame that the Millennium Scale didn't get much screen time in the series and that the modern day fated possessor was never revealed but all in all excellent job.
I have also experienced that vibe myself :)
Wow! A beautiful work, amazing! You put so much effort on this ✨ Congrats!!
Thank you :)
This is so cool and seemingly underappreciated! I mean this is just so awesome!
Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to me :)
This is really so cool. Like I want one. Yugi-oh was and still is one of my favorite cartoons (1st series) and This just brought back so many memories. I am so impressed by your dedication and craftsmanship. ❤
Thanks a lot :)
finally i found the "real milenium puzzle" on youtube 😭😭
Really glad to be what you longed for :)
Once every now and then I come to youtube and look for a real metal M. Puzzle just to see if I could ever have the pleasure of seeing it made real and after like 2 years since the last time that I searched, I find this video. You did a good job, especially trying to make the design work while still using references to some of the shape. I don't know if the person that designed the M. Puzzle had an actual functional puzzle design or if they just made some nice looking shapes for the puzzle pieces on the inside, but you made it work. As far as the dents in the final result of the metal working - my personal opinion is that it makes it look even more real even though it was not intentional. If I find an item that is as old as the show makes it out to be, I would expect to see some dents from all it's been through over hundres of years, plus the fact that some of the edges aren't very straight is also something I would expect from a civilzation with primitive methos of metal-working.
Wow, this comment really got me moving! Thanks for your kind words. I honestly was the same as you when it came to "come to youtube and look for a real metal M. Puzzle just to see if I could ever have the pleasure of seeing it made real"
Oh man! Its beautiful! I'm going to have to keep an eye out when you start selling these!
Thanks, please subscribe
You did a fantastic job of making this
It's great. Also you learned a lot. You have the 3d design. Maybe someday you can machine it by cnc and make a perfect puzzle, with outstanding quality!
That was a very ambitious project, and I think you did a great job! They made it look so easy in the anime, like they just poured the gold into the Millennium Stone and out the puzzle popped. I actually have a project that I'm considering attempting - I have a triangle-shaped leather bag that I want to paint to look like the puzzle, but I need to do so much research beforehand. Watching your video kind of gave me some inspiration into trying it.
Hope you success on your project 😃
I mean, in the anime scene you're (probably) referencing, they poured the gold into a mold (not the Millennium Stone) and it came out as one solid piece called the Millennium Pendant. It was turned into a puzzle after the Pharaoh defeated Zorc and sealed their souls away.
You did amazing the dents and that make it stand out as if it was the real puzzle
Nice great job brings back memories from when I was a kid
After a decade since pharaoh departure. The shadow game begin again!!
Hello, congratulations on your project, as a fan of yu-gi-oh it seems simply spectacular, all the details you captured from the puzzle are great, in addition to your work and dedication, keep going, greetings from Chile
Glad to hear such kind words from you :)
Amazing…
You solved a puzzle that took Yugi 8 YEARS to complete!
Man this looks amazing, yeah is not perfect but is not bad at all, love how you tried to stick to the original design and I would love to have one made of brass like this one
Thanks :) Yeah, I'm looking for many ways to produce a more reliable model.
Honestly dude, this is AWSOME!
And dont feel bad about it not being 110% perfect, think of it that way, back in old egypt, they could'nt have made it any better than you did with modern machines and stuff!
Like yours looks like it might legit be something antique and not a super clean perfect thing from 2021, i love it!
Thanks for the words of encouragement :)
Wow! So cool that you shared this art with the world
I'm glad you like it :)
Fascinating piece of work!
Thanks a lot :)
this is so beautiful! great work ❤
And for your final question - im sure that the Bandai millennium puzzle will be made out of plastic or another cheaper material, so it really couldn't compare to your brass puzzle! The brass makes it look like the real thing ^_^
@@harpiehunter9428 Thanks for your comment :)
It means a lot to me
whoaaaa *______* what a amazing piece of work !!
Thanks :)
This is awasome man! Way to go!
Thanks man :)
Beautiful. Now on to the rest of the millennium items.
For what it is, it was an amazing project! And while it wasn't perfect, it was an amazing first attempt! I was kinda thinking about doing the same thing though!
Awesome work, personally I know 3d modeling for mechanical parts (for automation machines) however I don't think I could create parts from a millenium puzzle and that it also resembles a lot the puzzle from the manga.
I like it a lot, personally I don't think the UltimaGear would have the same resemblance to the manga that you achieved. Awesome work!
Additionally, I think you can sell the 3d printed parts or the step files at least if you manage to change any name related.to the franchise.
For example I buy star wars lightsabers replicas that are screen accurate from lightsabers companies but they sell them not relating any information to the starwars franchise. For example they sell Luke Skywalker lightsaber with name likes:
"The Son". And instead of light saber they sell the product just as "saber".
Maybe you could do something like that.
I would be happy to have those step files if you share/sell them
@@JorgeRodriguez-gf3xs I will consider that. Thanks a lot :)
This is underrated
Oh wow you made an entirely different puzzle than the one made for the model kit
I made the interior before the announcement of it, so yeah, they are different
Finally a real metal puzzle! Nice work, sir. The timing of Bandai coming out with one first is just...I don't even know lol.
Although, perhaps you can take this as an opportunity to cop - I mean, take inspiration from - their pieces and make a second one using a CNC machine to make the parts if it's possible? That would likely fix your loose pieces issue.
In any case, best of luck in the future!
Thanks, as far as I know, CNC is still too hard since the basic one needs to move vertically. The more advanced one is expensive and it may not be able to finish some part in the inner space, I'm still doing some research before making a new design :)
wow. this is really fantastic work!!
Thanks a bunch :)
amazing work!
This is very impressive, I love it
Thanks :)
That's so cool, wish I had this as a kid
Now seal a soul into it and make it have infinite luck
You know, you could 3d print the pieces and sell the set. I would JUMP at that! And as long as it is fairly cheap, like, no more than $20, I would get it, and a LOT of other people would love it!
Amazing talent well done what you could do is buy the bandai one and then try making the brass again to see if it sticks
I think with the dents ect it looks more authentic as its supposed to be old
Eh...don't mind with the dents on the brass
It makes it looks ancient item, y'know, either way, superb job
Thanks :)
Great, now the Shadow Games return by unleashing the spirit of The Yami version of yourself😆
Amazing! It's a pity I can't buy this quality product. I hope Bandai makes a brass one
this model is amazing, if it was available for purchase I would definitely buy it! 😆
Subscribing because I want this brass one so bad now. I ordered my ultimagear one off amazon and it keeps getting pushed back. At this rate yours will come out sooner than my order lol
lol I sure hope so
This is fantastic
I just purchased the bandai millenium puzzle and here is what I have to say. Bandai's puzzle has a little bit more complex design and I think that it's more difficult to solve than yours. But what you made is more iconic than bandai' puzzle and your references are much more correct. Congrats for the effort that you put into creating this master piece ! I would suggest you to try print the pieces of the puzzle using a CNC cutting machine instead of molding the brass because you already have the 3d sketches. This is definitely something that I'm gonna try making in the future
Could you recommend the model of CNC machine you are referring to? As far as I know, a CNC machine can only cut horizontally and it would be hard to make the puzzle that way, maybe my experience isn't broad enough, so can you guide me on what to look for?
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 here is one portable cnc machine that could do the job. th-cam.com/video/vMY06dzf7UA/w-d-xo.html
Maybe it would be better if you give the stl code to someone who is professional on the cnc machining and makes parts by order. Yes on an traditional cnc machine it is difficult to make the puzzle but not impossible. I don't own a cnc machine I like watching videos on that topic so I can't provide you much information but I think that 5 axis cnc machining is the answer
It's beautiful and 146 gramms at that, that's a weight I would easily carry around my neck, 1,159 kg is a bit to heavy though...
Mr. Takahashi would have loved this, I'm sure!
Beautiful.
I have a diffenernt version that was made from resin but wish it was made of brass just like yours.
In the Anime, Yugi presummaly had to solve each one of the bigger pieces of the puzzle using more puzzle pieces.
Wow this is amazing
Dude thats very impressive It would be cool if you would mass produce these. Cause I would buy one and heartbeat.
Dude... It's perfect!
Thanks :)
Damn you made what i always wanted to do 😭😭 now i want one too 😭😭🤣
Cool, I Love It
this is your first video? it is so good that it seems like your hundreth
Haha thanks
nice done
Making the each a bit bigger will solve the problem because then in the finishing proses they can fitted better
Awesome!
Thanks :)
Is it possible to make it a little bigger? (Also is it still possible to get the stl files?)
After consideration, I have uploaded the STL file here:
cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/golden-puzzle-the-millennium-treasure
The size can be adjusted before you print, using the slicer.
One way to solve this issue would probably to have the pieces billet and not cast
Do you have any recommendations where they can do that for me?
I just want to know how much n where can I get one that was amazing n for u to actually make your amazing so pls let me know where to get one with the box pls ☺️
The brass one isn't for sale at this moment, I need to remodel it a lot before doing mass production. You can subscribe to hope for more update later :)
Heya! I love this! But I’ve started to do this and I don’t see where golden piece #5 goes? It’s the top left one at 7:02.
It goes with the top right piece to create a latch.
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 thank you!
Masterpiece ❤️
Thanks :D
I really want that brass one 😩
Just curious, how did the millennium puzzle stay intact all those years? Most people have trouble keeping all the pieces of a puzzle together for a decade let alone centuries or millennium.
Also assuming the millennium puzzle is the size and Design you presented it as, and assuming it's made the same way and out of pure gold it would weigh approximately twice of what you have. And I can't imagine what a 2.3 kg or 5-pound necklace would do to one's neck
I'm no experts in this field, someone here may know the answer :)
Will you attempt this again to perfect it? I wanted to do the same using the model kit pieces
I may try again next year, my schedule is now really tight, and making 3D models consumes a lot of time.
If i was doing the puzzle I don’t think I would solve it
That’s amazing
Thank you :)
Damn would love the Metal Puzzle To
Do you make and sell these would love to know me and my cousins grew up watching the anime and playing the tcg an if I’m interested in something like this I know they would be too love how you put so much dedication to your work and it came out great 👍 ☺️🙂
We will see when I have got time to develop the second version of the puzzle to meet my standard :)
I would love to see him cast the bandai namco one
Hi, I already saw Bandai’s official version and I must say I’m disappointed. Yours is far superior (although you can still work on little details, aa you commented).
How much would it cost the brass version? Would you take orders if anyone is interested in buying one?
I'm still looking for new ways to cast the metal before redesigning it. Still a long way to go before I can satisfy my standard. You can subscribe to hope for more updates :)
Very cool
Thanks :)
I really want to have 1 where i really have to build it myself
Like putting it together
Plot twist:You are the real life yugi
I hope so in many ways lol
How much would you charge to make one of these? I'm interested
so cool bro
I want this so badly .
Glad you like it :)
Neat. For top precision metal pieces go for a CNC machine.
Can you recommend to me which brand to use?
hello I am from Germany. can I buy this beautiful puzzle ? how much would it cost ? I would like the puzzle and the box and the lid for the box, please, everything made of metal. Thanks for the answer
Any chance you will Sell this Piece? I would love to have this, but i dont have the skills to make it myself
Will try to make second version with better puzzle pieces first :)
I’ll buy one
I looked into getting it 3d printed in metal. The cheapest option was over $400 for gray aluminum. Ouch
Over $1500 for brass
Legend says that when you look inside, you can see the Brady Bunch house...
I'd rather buy this one than Bandai's overpriced model kit version with no instructions on how to complete the puzzle
hello, i want to ask if you give permision to sell 3d prints of this model (obviously after purchase it) or its only for personal use?
It's only for personal use, sorry
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 ok bro, anyway it's an amazing work, congratulations!
How much would it cost to request one of yours?
3 words "I- NEED- THIIIISSS"!, btw in curious how durable is it like if i actually wear it as a practical necklace will it fall apart on me or will it stay put
For this design, it will likely fall apart if worn outside. I'm trying to come up with a new design but I haven't had time to experiment yet.
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 could you try like tiny magnets,basically make certain parts of the puzzle with holes to incorporate tiny but very strong magnets
If it made out of gold !😮
Any chance at all you'd sell it
As Kaiba said: Name your price
As of now, the quality does not meet my standard to mass produce it, so not for now sir. I may try to rework on it and make one for sell in the future.
@@tailstorygamesofficial866 well when you do, please let me specifically know
How much are you selling it for if I wanted to buy it?
There were offers of $1200 and $1500 on the only one I have but I turned them all down since that still didn't pay the effort I used to make this piece.
I actually have a plan to give it another go for making 2nd attempt but judging from how busy I am, that will need to wait until next year, I think.
Is really good and all, but i don’t see any Pharaoh coming out of the puzzle.🤷♂️
It's a shame I didn't include that part lol
@@tailstorygamesofficial866
I’ll buy the entire stock!
