A new viral brain teaser has emerged, tasking puzzle enthusiasts with finding a panda hidden among rows of Star Wars Stormtroopers and TIE fighter pilots. The image, posted on Imgur by Reddit user Oneste, has already garnered over 475,000 views since its release.
The puzzle features black-and-white Imperial troops, including Stormtroopers, Speeder Biker riders, and Snowtroopers, with a single panda cleverly concealed due to its matching monochrome colouring. However, many viewers have found this challenge easier than its predecessors, with some spotting the panda almost immediately.
The panda is located on the right-hand side, fifth row down, appearing slightly out of place among the Star Wars characters. Despite the relative ease for some, user YeaSheIs admitted: 'That took longer than I care to admit.'
This latest puzzle follows a series of similar brain teasers by Hungarian artist Gergely Dudás, whose Christmas-themed snowman puzzle went viral in December. That image, featuring a panda hidden among hundreds of snowmen, was liked by 42,000 people and shared 100,000 times within days. Dudás later created a puzzle with a cat hidden among owls.
The trend continues to captivate online audiences, with Espen Westum from Norway also contributing a heavy metal-themed puzzle inspired by Dudás' work.
