Requires 4 D size batteries that are not included.  The helicopter is in good working condition. I believe a couple accessories are missing so look carefully at the pictures to see what you will receive. Overall you will have everything required to perform the rescue mission.  The rescue gurney loop that the helicopter hooks onto has snapped along with a ladder edge (see pic 3). Both can be glued or taped if you so desire. The caution sticker came off of the helicopter wire, but will be included.  In general there are signs of wear.  The cardboard landing site is sagging.  The stickers are starting to peel in general.  There are signs of repeated construction and deconstruction of the chemical building, mainly bent tabs. Over all this is in good condition considering it has been enjoyed for over 40 years.
