Condition (used):  fair for age in poor box (see below) - this would appear to be complete apart from the instructions - the box is quite worn with edge/corner wear, damaged corners, sticker residue, tape marks, writing and discolouration, one of the mallets is quite damaged and the other has stress marks, otherwise fairly minor marks/wear commensurate with age and use.

Identifying marks or labels etc:    "© Aifix Products Ltd 1969".

Other information:  interesting old game and quite rare, the blocks are transparent versions of the the larger "Betta Bilda" parts made by Airfix in the late 1960s - "A children's game for 2 or 4 players. For the set-up, 52 plastic bricks in four colours are placed within a plastic frame. The colours are arranged in a pre-set configuration, as specified on the printed backing card. The frame is then stood up vertically, and the backing card is slid out. Each player is assigned a colour, (or 2 colours in a 2 player game). Using the plastic mallets only, players then take it in turn to knock any brick out of the wall. Play generally progresses from the bottom of the wall up, so sudden collapses of multiple bricks frequently occur. The first player to have none of their bricks remaining in the wall is the winner".
