As previous reviewers have noted this product comes in a plastic bag. I knew this would be the case but I did not realize how crummy the packaging would actually be. The plastic bag was all crumbled up and looked as if it had been used as a punching bag when it arrived. It is not very attractive to give as a gift. Legos needs to at least put the pieces in a decent small box. The packaging from Amazon was not the problem - it was well packed in shipment. It appears the problem is the quality of the bag the manufacturer chose to use. I have been buying Legos for years and years and this is the first time I have had an issue with their packaging.
