Is it highly breakable? Or is it pretty solid?

It probably won't break if you drop it, but it might squish if you sit on it. The pyramid base is cardboard.

I started by making a pyramid bade with cardstock (4 triangles and a square). Then I cut the "puzzle" pieces out of a sheet of cardboard and glued them onto the base. Separately, I made the eye out out salt dough (home-made play doh), which took about 24 hours to completely dry (which would've happened much quicker if I had baked it). The next day, I glued the eye to the pyramid with cardboard on it. I got another piece of cardboard and poked a hole in it, then got a key ring and wrapped a wire around it, running it through the small hole and folding it on the other side, gluing it down. I then attached the cardboard with key ring to the top of the pyramid. After that, I just coated it with a couple layers of acrylic paint and a few coats of metallic gold spraypaint.

If it was that hard to make it like that, I can't imagine how hard it would be to make all the pieces of the Millenium Puzzle authentically gold-plate like how they actually were in the show

If possible, could I please see side of the puzzle?
I'm possibly going to make one myself and I can't seem to find a picture of the puzzle on its side.

Thanks! You should see it now that it has a chain instead of the string!
To be honest, I just kind'a BS'd the sides of it. At the time, I couldn't find any pictures of them, either.
Here's a picture of an official Yami Yugi model that shows the side of the puzzle: [link]
I wish I could've found this when I was making mine.

You're welcome!
I've had so many people ask how I got it so shiny! I used Krylon Metallic Brilliant Gold Indoor Exceptionally Smooth Spray Paint. It's super shiny and dries really fast.
I think I made mine a little too small. Well, maybe not for younger/smaller people. It's about 4x4x4", though a more realistic size would probably be about 5x5x5" or (compared to Yugi) 6x6x6".

actually I wasn't sure where you got it from unless you made it.. and if you made it then your really good at molding metals.

It looks heavier than it really is.
