The items should ideally be as pristine and perfect as when they were first moulded and printed.

As above but no longer sealed. it should include all of the parts that came with the original set. Unless otherwise stated on the condition notes, this should also include everything the original set would have, including instructions, sticker sheets, box.

New (Incomplete)
