Box has some light edge wear / corner wear to packaging. No cracks or breaks to plastic bubble window packaging just a little crease by head. The box is over 20 inches tall. This toy is now over 37 years old. Most don't talk this one does. This is not on Ebay, being sold exclusively through Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. First time offered. A very nice example of a classic toy!!! I have a large Doctor Dolittle doll in the box that is almost 60 years old. I have other toys and advertising for sale on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. Please ask any questions that you may have via email or text. Unlike Ebay or auctions I charge no tax, shipping charge or buyers premium for Craigslist or Facebook purchases that are picked up or handed off. Thank you, Dave
