| To prevent minor scratches, it may be useful to wrap your figures. I wrap mine in paper kitchen towels (with a sticker to label them). |

| Whoa, blast from the past! This is basically the system I used as a kid to hold my models.Thats why many of them are very scuffed and have lost much of their paint. Your system however is much more organized and orderly. As for scuffing, storage is still the hardest issue for collectors and there are lots of ways to tackle it. Your bubble wrap looks like a good way to layer and limit rubbing, but paper towels are probably a good idea too Roger. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Great storage idea.I too, have to keep mine in plastic containers and I use bubble wrap for some of the larger models and put a note in with each container so I know what models are in there.I put my models in bags that you use for sandwiches/food storage(Ziploc)to try and prevent scratching. |

| I would love to delve through your drawers, especially the vintage one! _________________ [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] ADAM [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] "Our planet is in crisis.
