This is a Dragon Quest Slime figure. There are no noticeable scratches or dirt, but please understand that it is a used item before purchasing. As it has been stored at home, please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive about such things. Regarding shipping during the New Year holidays, I will ship if the post office is open. Please understand that if the post office is closed, shipping will be on the first business day after the New Year. Thank you.
