Assembled and displayed. Never played with. Have box and instructions. I can ship the castle as put together as much as possible so it can be played with as soon as you receive it. Or….. I can disassemble and place all pieces labeled in bags 1 through 6 to follow instructions so that you can build the castle again (just will not be original bags and stickers have been placed). I’ve done this before for many other sets to sell. Just let me know which option you prefer.
