There are some minor scratches from play on the connecting parts. The connections are not loose, and I think you can still play with them. It seems production has ended, according to the website. Please understand that these are used items. Blocks only, without the box. They will be packed compactly and shipped via Rakuraku Mercari Bin or Yu-Yu Mercari Bin. If you need the box, please let me know in the comments. I think I can accommodate you, but the shipping cost will change.
