I displayed this in my room for about a year after purchasing it. There are small scratches on the back of the base (photos 6 and 7). They are noticeable depending on the lighting and angle, but it can still be displayed without issue. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item, as it has been stored by an amateur. I will ship it in an envelope with bubble wrap, as shown in the photos. Immediate purchase is welcome. Added on October 12th: I am not considering any further price reductions *ᴗˬᴗ Please be aware of this if you are considering purchasing. ROF-MAO Kaida Haru
