Occasioanl little mark at a raised detail/exposed edge and the expected couple of little marks on the roof support where the ladder rests (often found with more marks than this).

Colours are day-one bright throughout including the box base. Traces of the old tape which kept the lid closed, and a very small area of surface loss at a lid end.
