Open and display.

^^^ I agree, open is better. The only figs I have sealed are my MIB Mego Star Trek/Muhammad Ali and AFA 85 Indy ROTLA

those who keep MISP, how do you control the acid of the boxes from affecting the figure? do you place conservatory cardboard/acid free tissue paper around the boxes?

 

[Kamandi]

Yes, you must use acid free tissue paper and replace the figure back in the box. Try not to breath at all on the figure, as the spores and micro-organisms that we exhale could over time destroy your investment.

It is then crucial to place the boxed figure in an airtight container and fill it with inert rare earth gas and shield from all light.

there is a news article I'd like for you to read but I can't post it here due to the nature of its contents but look up "Daniel James DuPuis" on Google.

Classic buddy

I responded when this guy thought that the Rocky 20 inch statue may fall over when displayed and of course another member called me an ass, so get ready for it if it comes, as for me, your response is pure genius

 

[quiggle]

I took your word for it and ordered the statue so if anything goes wrong and it falls off the base, it's on you.
