Although this box was water damaged and had clearly been that way for years, the product was perfect! This is a hard to find item and a gift for a lego lover at Christmas. A very happy boy and his dad built this and it has been flying all over the house picking up and dropping off very important customers!

Recommendation: meh 39 / 50 by John

think this one has recently increased in collectibility purely due to the announcement during last week of the Airport subtheme of City being released in the second half of 2016. For those of us wanting to increase our fleet of aircraft, this will be a prime candidate. It's currently fetching a little higher on the secondary markets for used, and more than double for a new copy, so if you aren't precious about a sealed box, it won't hurt the wallet too much more.
