The propeller is damaged: one of the blades is broken off or missing, as shown in the close-up photos, so it will need repair for a complete propeller look. The model also shows signs of age, including minor paint scuffs, light surface wear and dust from storage. The hand-painted stars and details have a pleasant aged patina.
