This is from a time when I was collecting Sylvanian Families, mainly the early ones. I'm not very knowledgeable, but I believe these are early models. I purchased them in very clean condition and displayed them in a glass case for a while before storing them away. They haven't been played with. They stand, but are not poseable. Personally, I think they are in beautiful condition for their age, with hardly any flocking wear. However, everyone's perception is different, and there is always some aging. Please examine the images carefully.
