There may be some scratches as I played with it when I was a child. Please forgive my amateur assessment. If you have any concerns, or would like additional photos of the back, please comment. As you can see, there is some whitening and bending. Please understand that this is for play use only to prevent any issues. It will be protected from water damage and shipped between cardboard. We do not accept claims, returns, or exchanges to prevent swapping. Thank you for your understanding.
