If moving is your worry box some up. There is what, 25-30K, worth of statues...protect them. You could buy 2-3 Pax and display most of your collection nicely, protected, and far less dust. I think the Pax are about 1K but its pennies compared to your value of your collection. If you move you have a tractor trailer load of SS boxes so a couple of Pax display cases is nothing.
 
Dude! Just do a couple shelves a day for a week.

Thanks all so much info to protect my statues, I think I'm going to have to do what ink says. There's really no way around this. I still love them until I see paint peeling, then I will sell it all off and quit. I will just dust as much as I can. Should be interesting when I try this. At least I don't have the fragile sabers, swords, and a lot of the ex parts out on displayed. Now I'm worried about the room temp in the winter and summer. That I can't do much about when I'm not home most of the time. The only person watching my home most of the time is my dog. I do turn on the heat and ac when im home but I don't leave it on 24 hr a day.
 
I wouldn't worry to much. I don't display all my my figures behind glass & there fine. My room doesn't seem to get very dusty but I do dust them regularly still though.
 
Wow to dust so many statues is too much work each month or two. :slap not sure what to do........... I don't want to destroy them either.......as for cabinets I'm not sure if I will ever get them because I might be moving around more than once in the future. I can try to dust them more but is it even possible to dust the superfine details of a statue? I mean parts like the fingers, hair lines, etc. I will use a brush but no air can for me too much risk to that. If i get damage from dust on these or weather damage I will quit collecting. :(

Dude... no offense but you are being foolish. Invest in display cabinets and look into brushes for objects like watches where the brush hairs are soft. That or use a fine hair paint brush to get the dust off the small areas.

Thanks this makes me feel a lot better, but as everyone says I will start dusting tonight when I get home. Thanks everyone for letting me know. Otherwise I would have just let them be for years. :wave
 
I have had thousands in the PF's stored for years, and they will still be stored until I find something I'm happy with what I want to display these amazing pieces in.

I wonder would there be moisture? Saying if they are store in the basement? I guess it's surely safer than leaving them in the open. But I just got home and started dusting wow, so much dust on my earlier ones. I see the dust fly off, I did some detail brushing on a few of them. It was not as bad as I thought dusting them. It's kind of fun. But any ideas on how to lower the dust? I have a lot of dust in that room. I have air filters in the ac/ heating vents already, a machine that sucks dusts but still not enough. Anything else to lower the dust in that room? :)
Thanks again for everyones help. You were all right the dust was starting to build badly. I will dust them much more often from now on.

Uh, yea, stay out of your own room! People are a major contributor of dust. Human shead skin flakes that's not much visible until it accumulate.
 
Guys, how do you clean fabric Pf? Comiquette is much easier to clean IMO.
 
I would encase the whole shelf with a window winterizing kit for now, until you can find a permanent solution. Put a hair dryer on it and it will be stretched tight. :yess:
 
I go in there but I was given the extra bedroom downstairs for my toys so its not like people are in there all day long or anybody really other than me goes in.
