I gave this to my child as a present, but they seem to have difficulty with the pop-up mechanism and were scared, so they only played with it at the beginning and haven't played with it much since. It's in very clean condition. The stickers were applied with my child, so there are some slight misalignments. The batteries that are currently in use are included. There is no original box or instruction manual. The parts will be placed in a Tupperware container, the main unit will be wrapped in plastic, and then everything will be shipped in a properly sized cardboard box. Fragile stickers will be placed on the box.
