I purchased this on the first day of its release. It was too expensive for me to build, so I just had it as a "pile of plastic" (unfinished model kits). I'm selling it now as part of a decluttering effort. It's new, but since it was part of my "pile of plastic," the box has some scratches and dents. There may also be minor scuffs and wrinkles on the box. Please make your final decision based on the photos. With the above in mind, please only purchase if you understand and accept the condition. I plan to pack it in a recycled cardboard box with newspaper as cushioning material.
