Temu's toy fail is so rogue, it will leave you feeling... puzzled

“Finally, a puzzle that matches my eighth grade geometry test answers.” 

As far as Temu fails go, this one is by far the most puzzling. 

For father Frankie, he thought he was venturing into the wide world of shapes with his two-year-old daughter. 

The wood-based toy her bought for her is a staple to every child’s toy box.

"Interesting phrases"

However, when the father sat down with his toddler to lift the puzzle pieces what he found underneath left him speechless.  

“I was helping our daughter put it together the other day! We just laughed super hard,” he told Kidspot. 

In a now-viral TikTok he showed just what he was confronted with, simply captioning the post “not today, Satan.”  

As he lifted each shape mysterious words - totally unrelated to the shape - were revealed.  

“Well my wife was the one who ordered it and unboxed it and neither of us realised the umm… “interesting phrases” until I was helping our daughter put it together the other day,” he said. 

Under the blue trapeze, the word ‘teapezoid.’ 

So close, yet so far! 

Perhaps we’ll have better luck with the heart? 

Upon removing it, Frankie found the word ‘heart shapen.’

It appears they just gave up by the time they printed the star shape with the word ‘pentagram’ hidden behind the piece.

"I gave this video a 'heart shapen'" 

For his daughter it doesn’t make very much of a difference at this stage, so the parents intend to continue using the toy regardless of the hilarious misprint. 

“She hasn’t learned to read yet, so we’ll just always verbally say the right shape as we play,” he explained. 

The comment section of the video that has now gained over 900,000 views from people who couldn’t get enough of it. 

“I gave this video a ‘heart shapen,’” one commenter joked. 

“This would become my most treasured possession, I fear,” another said. 

A third wrote “Finally, a puzzle that matches my eighth grade geometry test answers.” 

While Frankie likely won’t be rushing to purchase more toys from Temu, he can’t say the same for the rest of the household. 

“You never know with my wife! She loves a bargain!” he said.
