Chain parts have been removed from sprues and original bag. Other pieces have been removed from bags as well. Instruction sheet has tanned w/age but is o/w exceptionally clean. Box shows corner tip wear w/some age spotting and rippling to surface paper, but box remains tight w/some scattered color rubs and surface paper flakes along corner edges. Box bottom has one corner partially split. Fine overall. The largest figure kit Aurora ever released, it was designed by Marvin Glass who also designed Mr. Machine, Mousetrap and the Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots among others.
