This item is in good condition, with just one or two very small areas of thinning flocking. The flocking on these "Big Figs" almost always has some thinning spots or even missing spots. This figurine is in overall good condition and in my estimate, has held up better than most. To be honest, I looked it over very thoroughly and I would probably be calling the flocking to be in very good to excellent condition, but it's not brand new and there is at least one spot where the flocking looks a tiny bit thin, so just to be safe I am calling this item to be in Good Condition. As far as I can tell very few (or even possibly none) of these flocked Big Figs have survived over the many years without at least some flocking degradation. It's just the nature of the material that was used and how that it was applied. As you can see from the photos, the flocking has held up very well. Overall, it's my opinion that this is the best example of this Big Fig that I've seen for sale in awhile. Most that I have seen have missing dragonflies, many spots of flocking damage, non-working music or lights or chips and cracks in the base. Also, there is one small dragonfly wing missing. At some point, the AA batteries were left in and there was some leakage of the acid into the battery compartment. No damage occurred outside of the battery box. I have removed the batteries and cleaned up the compartment. The new batteries fit fine and the lights work as they should with no problems. The item has is original battery box cover. The music plays when it is wound up. Please see the multiple photos that I have uploaded as well as the video that lets you hear the music. The entire battery box / music box is a little loose, but it does not appear to affect anything or the operation of the lights or music.
