Item is in used played with condition. For it's age it's in good condition. Nothing is broken, all the arms and legs are in good condition. The clothing has the most wear of everything, its not in horrible shape, but the photos show the condition well.  The battery compartment is in great condition, very little corrosion like alot of these are that have had batteries left in them for years, and the cover is in excellent shape, it opens and shuts perfectly. The switch on the back moves into the on and off position with ease and stays in place kike it should. Please see pics for condition before you purchase as this is the exact item you will receive. I didn't have the correct batteries to try it out to see if it would work, but with that said, it seems to be in very good condition. The paint on the teeth looks as good as some that I've seen that were never taken out of the original box.
