I opened the package to check the design, and then stored it in its original bag in a dark place. However, it has been stored by a private individual. I have confirmed there are no initial scratches, but this is a personal inspection. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about the above. I am also selling other Nintama Rantaro goods, so please apply if you would like to purchase them together. I am also looking for someone to take them off my hands elsewhere. Thank you for your understanding.
