This lightsaber is like new and has only been out of the box for a few minutes to test it out. The blade lights up perfectly up and down when turned on and off. All sounds and motion fx function perfectly. There are no scratches or imperfections anywhere in the blade or the hilt. The rubber parts on the bottom of the hilt are sticky to the touch due to age. They all do this, it is the type of rubber that was used in manufacturing and has nothing to do with misuse or damage. This is the rare 30th anniversary version. The box has some water damage on the edge on one side as shown in pics. You will receive the exact item pictured.
