I have done my best to detail all flaws, but may not have noticed each one due to the volume of pieces - expect wear typical of vintage, well-played-with toys. One of the blue explorer figures has the body of the bucket that it was holding broken off, the broken piece is not included. One of the yellow native figures has a ski pole broken off, the broken piece is included, pictured in photo 8.

One of the yellow native figures has a partially mangled base, pictured in photo 8. The yellow kayaking figure has a broken paddle, pictured in photo 7.

The rope one of the yellow figures is dragging a seal with in broken in one spot. The hitch on one of the dog sleds is broken, the harness will not hitch to the sled, pictured in photo 9. The blue rocket base has one of its legs broken off, the broken piece is not included. The front of the two-piece "research lab" has all but one of its tin tabs for attaching to the body of the building broken off, and has some spots of tape residue from where it was taped on. The tin entrance and wall piece have some bending, spots of paint loss, and spots of tarnish and rust from age and use, especially at the folds in the wall pieces - see photo 10 for example.

The white rockets and the translucent igloos have some discoloration from age. The item "Vintage Marx IGY Arctic Satellite Base Play Set 1950s Scarce" is in sale since Tuesday, September 8, 2020.
