I know I have talked about this before, but the paint issues with these figures (where they easily scuff/scratch if they are played with or rubbed together) has kept me from buying them at all. The more I see of the figures and new waves coming out, the more I really want to buy them for my son.

My question is this: is there any way you can pre-treat a figure with a paint issue like this after buying it, so that it won't scratch anymore? I can't imagine that there is, but if anyone would know the answer to this, it would be the people on this board. I just wanted to check before I gave up on the line once and for all. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Jay

Try Workable fixative- that or Testor's Dullcoat sealant spray- both sal paint so it wont get scratched and can be cleaned (gently!) without coming off.

Should handle most of your paint issues....although it'll dull the coating on anything intentionally shiney (GL Figures, armor, etc.).
