Thread: Advice for storing toys?

Hey everyone!

I'm going to be moving home in a couple of weeks and unfortunately my toy collection is going to have to stay in storage for possibly a couple of years. I'm super gutted.

Anyway, can anyone give me some advice on storage? For starters it will be stored away from sunlight. My biggest concern is that I don't have time to order acid free zip-lock bags to individually store my stuff. I have a large under bed storage box from whamproducts.co.uk but I was wondering how best to store them inside the box. I have bubble-wrap but I've heard that it doesn't take long for the acid in the wrap to start breaking down and eating the toys.

While I don't necessarily need protective wrap for my Star Wars and Marvel figures since they'll be in a sturdy plastic box anyway, I would like some layer between them so they're not all sat directly on top of each other. And is that type of box okay to have figures directly touching?

I also have a number of NECA Terminator and Gears of War figures that I absolutely want to have some kind of protective padding around since I've already had a couple break on me.

Thanks guys!
