gkbiiii Posted October 31, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2022 After nearly a year of waiting, my first crystal block arrived today. It is much smaller than the ones I have seen in person and oddly they are now "made in China?" I thought they used to be made in USA. Is it possible to get a normal sized one, or do I have to buy one from Ebay? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tlbecker1 Posted October 31, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 31, 2022 What ship? We have 5 and the last one we received was from the Anthem, with the lettering all in caps. It is exactly the same as our older ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Adventure, Enchantment, and Radiance blocks are ~4" x 3" x 2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted October 31, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 31, 2022 My recent Anthem is the same size as the Adventure that I received some years ago. Difference is that the Anthem is in Capital letters and more pronounced that you can see the lettering better than the Adventure. The Anthem box has the Royal logo, whereas the Adventure was in a drab black box. Also, I don't see anywhere where it was made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to get a normal sized one, or do I have to buy one from Ebay? We have received 14 crystal blocks since 2009 ...3 of which I have given to special crew members. I just actually looked at the 11 now and the only change I see is the Oasis block is 3mm wider and 2 mm less in height all the rest the only difference is the writing script. We have only received 2 blocks from the new supplier so far..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njkruzer Posted October 31, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Just got home from our Anthem TA and saw the box at the door which seemed ok since we were expecting one for Anthem, though it was too soon for it, but what was here was a 2nd Jewel one for our April cruise! So now have 2 of the new ones for Jewel, plus the old one for a Jewel cruise years ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
