Condition

Model Condition - Near mint (9/10)

Upon inspection of the model, minor paint bubbling is visible on the topside wing surfaces. This issue is more pronounced on the underside, specifically along the middle section of the fuselage.


Box condition - Very Good (7/10)

The box presents itself in very good overall condition. However, there are some drawbacks to note. There is a small tear located on the bottom tab, which slightly detracts from its appearance. Additionally, the front cover exhibits some flexing inwards, affecting the structural integrity. As a result, the box is unable to sit upright without additional support.


Photographed under studio lighting to highlight even the smallest imperfections. Buy with confidence, what you see is exactly what you get.

Any imperfections are shown in the images and description. Refer to the grading tab for more details. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
