Smoke of any kind (cigarettes, fireplaces, etc) will basically stain the figure. There are some remedies to fix it, but it's rather laborious to do that and it's just easier to do preventative maintenance then attempt to restore them down the road.
This. I agree with this , got two friends who are both collectors one has his collection in a bedroom , the other in the family room where in the winter they used the fireplace and I notice that my friend whose collection is on the bedroom has the figures more vibrant colors than the other.
