2. Setup

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the figure from its packaging. The figure is secured within a clear plastic insert inside the cardboard box.
2. Placement: Place the figure on a flat, stable surface to prevent it from falling. Ensure the display area is clean and free from direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent potential fading of colors.
3. Glow Feature Activation: To activate the glow-in-the-dark feature, expose the figure to a bright light source (e.g., sunlight, fluorescent light, or UV light) for several minutes. The longer the exposure, the brighter and longer the glow will last in a dark environment.

3. Operating the Glow Feature

The Erik Killmonger figure's glow-in-the-dark feature is passive and does not require batteries or electronic components. It relies on phosphorescent materials embedded in the figure's design.

• Charging: Expose the figure to a strong light source. Natural daylight or a bright lamp are effective. UV light can provide a more intense and rapid charge.
• Observation: Once charged, move the figure to a completely dark room or area to observe the glow effect. The intensity of the glow will gradually diminish over time until it is recharged.

4. Maintenance

• Cleaning: To clean the figure, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dust or smudges, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the paint or finish.
• Storage: Store the figure in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, consider keeping it in its original packaging or a protective display case to prevent dust accumulation and environmental damage.
• Handling: Handle the figure by its base or body to avoid putting stress on smaller parts, such as the bobble-head spring or accessories.

5. Troubleshooting

Figure Does Not Glow in the Dark

• Insufficient Light Exposure: Ensure the figure has been exposed to a bright light source for an adequate amount of time (at least 5-10 minutes).
• Ambient Light: Verify that the viewing environment is completely dark. Even small amounts of ambient light can reduce the perceived glow effect.
• Light Source Type: While most light sources work, UV light (blacklight) is particularly effective for charging phosphorescent materials and can produce a more vibrant glow.
