There are no chips or cracks to the casing and mechanically everything works as it should. It does benefit hugely from using the best possible batteries (size "C") you can lay your hands on.  The battery compartment itself is nice and clean - no corrosion. The box is a little bit worn and the original owner, Nicola - hello Nicola! - has written her name on the front of it. We hope she doesn't mind that we're selling it on after having had a good old play with it.

The plastics are still in their original bags and attached to their mounts and most of the figure shapes are retained in their original cards, although one or two have worked themselves free over time. The box is in quite good condition and has affixed to it the original price stickers.

A toy which is now uncommon and even less likely to be in this preserved state if you ever do stumble across one. We think it would suit an enthusiast of old games or of travel, or might make a quirky gift for a pilot or airline worker.  Or, perhaps, it might just get used for its original purpose, finally - and we'd absolutely love for that to happen as well.
