Display and Handling

This Funko Pop! figure is a collectible item designed for display. Proper handling ensures its longevity and preserves its condition.

• Display Location: Place the figure on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity. These conditions can cause discoloration or material degradation over time.
• Handling: When handling the figure, hold it by its base or main body. Avoid touching painted surfaces excessively to prevent smudges or wear.
• Stability: Ensure the figure is placed where it cannot be easily knocked over, especially if displayed without its protector case.

Maintenance

Regular, gentle maintenance will help keep your Funko Pop! figure in excellent condition.

• Dusting: Use a soft, dry brush or a microfiber cloth to gently remove dust from the figure and its protector case. Avoid abrasive materials.
• Cleaning: For minor smudges on the protector case, use a slightly damp cloth with plain water. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can damage the plastic. For the figure itself, dry dusting is generally sufficient.
• Storage: If storing the figure for an extended period, keep it in its original box and protector case in a cool, dry place, away from direct light.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common minor concerns with collectible figures.

• Dust Accumulation: If dust builds up in crevices, use a soft brush or a can of compressed air (held at a safe distance) to dislodge it.
• Minor Scuffs on Protector: Small surface scuffs on the plastic protector case are generally cosmetic. Avoid rubbing vigorously, as this can worsen them.
• Figure Instability: Ensure the figure is properly seated on its base. If it has a bobble-head feature, ensure the spring is not bent or damaged.
