It was a 320 piece jigsaw and I had two different types. I&#8217;m not sure if there were others in the set but what stood out was instead of the usual blue skies and clouds as the jigsaw challenge, UFO was a science fiction series from USA set in space, thereby the challenge was black skies and stars. I remember the great coloured buttons on the the control panel all so futuristic and yet now so dated.<\/p>\n<p>Other memorable parts of Ufo jigsaws were the sliver outfits and purple hair along wit various scenes of thunderbird type vehicles on a planet fit for the\u00a0clangers.<\/p>\n<p>In effect, arrow games made a lot of 320 piece jigsaws when i was a kid, they were a pleasant change to the normal type of boring jigsaw all my relatives produced when i visited their homes.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/ufo-arrow-games-jigsaw\/\"><img width=\"125\" height=\"99\" src=\"http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ufo-Jigsaw-160x127.jpg\" class=\"alignright tfe wp-post-image\" alt=\"UFO Jigsaw Puzzle\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ufo-Jigsaw-160x127.jpg 160w, http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ufo-Jigsaw-300x238.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ufo-Jigsaw-377x300.jpg 377w, http:\/\/www.skooldays.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ufo-Jigsaw.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 125px) 100vw, 125px\" \/><\/a><p>Today&#8217;s skoolday memory is the nostalgic UFO jigsaw by arrow games.
