While we may not be able to help you find the droids you are looking for we can certainly help you when it comes to looking for the best 3D Star Wars puzzle. We have already looked at some more traditional Star Wars puzzles here at Geek’s Oasis, but today we are kicking things up a notch.
The puzzles we are looking at today are cooler than Boba Fett riding on a Rancor! These puzzles go beyond the 2nd dimension and require that you are at the very least a little bit Force Sensitive in order to put these together!
While putting together puzzles is a great way to give your mental health a positive boost and also work on your fine motor skills. These 3D puzzles are really cool in that once you are done putting them together you have a cool collectible that you can display with the rest of your Star Wars collection.
Using The Force To Find The Right Puzzles
When we did our last Star Wars puzzle guide, we tried to go to Darth Vader for help, turns out he just got pretty mad and ended up Force choking the Geek’s Oasis member that asked him for help over Microsoft Teams!
This time we went to Han instead and while Han was much more friendly, he made us play him cards for the information… we lost, and we actually lost everything that we had on us!
Instead, we just embraced the Force of our search engine on our computers and picked what we felt were the coolest-looking Star Wars 3D puzzles!

FAQs About Star Wars 3D Puzzle
We are sure that up above the perfect Star Wars 3D puzzle is there for you. However, we do have some extra things we feel you should know before spending your hard-earned Republic Credits!
Are Tools Needed For The Metal Puzzles?
It is worth noting that for those awesome Metal Earth Star Wars 3D puzzles you will need a couple of basic tools.
Something like this Piececool 3D Metal Model Kits Tools Set would be good to purchase for clipping the pieces off the sheets and then turning the tabs so that they are secure. If you already have these things in your toolbox, you are good to go!
What Do I Need For The Wooden Puzzles?
The wooden puzzles say that they do not need any tools or glue. You may want to sand down the edges a bit so some sandpaper would be good.
Also, while you do not technically need glue for these, some people do prefer to glue them to keep them secure forever.
Of course, if you decide to paint them some paints that are suitable for wooden models will be required.
Some Wise Advice From Master Luke
We wanted to end our search for the best Star Wars 3D puzzle with some parting advice from Luke Skywalker. We called him on the Force Ghost phone, but he would not pick up so you will just have to listen to us instead!
We feel that no matter if you go for wood or metal, they are both challenging. They both look great, but we suggest you go for what style you think is the coolest.
Also as we just said, make sure you have any extras like a little tool kit, glue, paint, or whatever, before you start your Star Wars 3D puzzle journey!
Thanks for reading and May The Force Be With You!
