There's a bit of a flaw on the front, but the paint is great otherwise and the delicate parts, like the arms, weren't detached even after shipping (but not something I'd give to a kid because of that though--I don't think it could handle rough play). I'm a collector so I'm keeping it in-box (probably), but I would totally set up a scene with a turret Pop! and use the "flaw" as a sign of laser damage were I to take it out. :)
