Hmm. I can‘t remember what website I went to, but there are a number that talk about collectibles and the ideal humidity and temp. I wonder if the humidity levels are wrong…?

I'm surprised we haven't got Huyang yet tbh.

People tend to overstate the pleather deterioration thingy cause it is indeed a major thing in collecting specially here in South east asian countries w/c is kinda surprising for a HK company who happens to share the same climate conditions we have, not to invest their RnD on the issue. They actually did with some but i cant say the same thing for most of the recent ones.
Unless you have a place like mall displays or ala the secretbase to store them figures, our figures here usually shows some deterioration in under 2 years. Mind you i keep my figures in a dust proof cabinet far away from UV and direct sunlight, apply aerospace protectant constantly and beeswax on my pleathers/leathers but this still occurs rapidly.
The climate here is just harsh with this materials w/c make me think sometimes maybe we're just not the target market for these
.
The supes, deadools and spiderman suits get icky and stick with whatever it gets contact with so i tend to stayaway from those specially.
So far my DX10 leather costume it the one that stands superior compared to everything else that has leather like material w/c make me kinda with they use the same stuff for this release

I'm thinking of three figures I'd probably instantly buy - Thrawn, Enoch and Artisan Sith Anakin.

Because that one they used real leather not pleather. They were beating out Enterbay at the time then once Enterbay were defeated they returned to using pleather.People tend to overstate the pleather deterioration thingy cause it is indeed a major thing in collecting specially here in South east asian countries w/c is kinda surprising for a HK company who happens to share the same climate conditions we have, not to invest their RnD on the issue.

Unfortunately the DX10 jacket never sat quite as well as the MMS117 one, it was bulkier. Also it had no weathering.

Yes, all of this. The only issue I've had was with the Spike premium format figure from the Buffy line and that pleather cape. It's what ultimately had me bump up my dehumidifier count in my basement from 1 to 3. Keeping the humidity at or below 55, combined with a pretty constant temp and no direct sunlight and my pleathers all seem fine after several years...
Lots of development there. I expect Huyang around S2 so they don’t muck it up like Hasbro!

Not exactly but that is quite similar to mine. Also got a mini dehumidifier too that handles the smallest room.
Edit: for some weird reason this reply somehow automatically included my last reply to another comment. Not sure how that glitch happened, for a moment I thought I had somehow edited my earlier post. Weird.

Neck looks awful. Like they didn't even try. But that’s pretty much my only complaint. The rest of the figure looks stunning.
