Condition

Model Condition - Near Mint (9/10)

The model does not appear to have been displayed. However, there is a small blemish mark on the top of the fuselage in the grey paint, so it is described as near mint condition. The model may have been taken out of the box for inspection, as the blister packing has a crack in it.


Box condition - Excellent (8/10)

The box is in excellent condition for its age. There is some minor crushing to the back and light wear areas on the sides.


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.
