This is the second release and the acrylic stand from the summer of 2020. Both are new and unopened. They have been stored in a dark place after purchase. They have not been displayed or taken outside. Since they have not been opened, I have not been able to check for any small scratches or dirt, but as far as I could see through the bag, there were none. They will be wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped with water damage protection. Instant purchase is OK. Bi Shonen ACEes Hida Ukiyo
