It was 2012 model and contained in paper box (cardboard). I have found the plastic bracket is not very durable, cracked after a few use.

Its a heavy cardboard. I have 4 of them along with the drawers in my daycare. I love them! They are sturdy and hold up well to repeated use.

Appears to be cardboard. The whole thing is pressed wood, I think. Still, good for the price

The box is correct. The ad is for the older model but you get the newer model.

I vaguely recall something like that and assumed it was scrap plastic or part of the packaging, and threw it out if memory serves. Anyone know better?

Hard to say.. that's a cheap price, so I would guess its recycled. I paid 10.00 for mine new. Check ebay, or just do a Google search and compare prices.

Metal chassis, but the bits around the screen shown on the picture in black are plastic. If you're worried about road-worthiness I don;t think you'll have a problem.

It is plastic. Looks a lot like cardboard but much more sturdy. My cat loves this barn.

It is a cardboard piece of junk. It broke on the first day we were playing the game. Even before it broke it didn't work as good as the old plastic ones did that came with the set we had years ago.

The photo on the box is the one in the picture. I bought this model about a year ago but I doubt it's changed.

This one is plastic. I have had it mounted for several months and found it very durable.

Mine was plastic. Judging from previous answers they might be phasing the plastic one from their inventory.

I got mine in a plain cardboard box with "Light Rail 4.0" stamped on the box in a few places. No pics on the box. This was over a year ago though.

It has a polished metal outside. The inside under the velvet it definately not cardboard. It is stiff but slightly flexible so I would say particle or a thin strip of wood. I found the same looking jewelry box at Walmart for $60.00 and up. This is the best deal.

The box I received has a trademark of 1972, 2013. It is the classic board, good quality, and the planchette is plastic. Both pieces are as I remember them from childhood.
