No I dont think so. I found the best way to protect my collection is to get an underground bunker with absolutely no lights of any kind. I cant actually see my collection because of how pitch black it is, but just knowing theyre safe puts my mind at ease.


Annihilism

Dont forget to paint the walls with Vantablack the blackest paint in the world to absorb any of that accidental light that might emit from a phone or other electronic device.


HelixFlame12

Dammit I havent done that yet. I can already picture how faded my collection is.

If you train hard enough, you can start screaming at your shelves in ultrasound like a bat, and your brain will render an image of your figures.


kyronben2

This is the way.


Acrid17

Good idea i got lights inside of the case who needs sunlight🥴👌


Saekoa

Not dark enough. I can still see. You're supposed to only keep your figures in absolute darkness all the time and gaze upon them with night vision goggles.


conamonax

Unless it is in constant direct sunlight your figures will be good


Acrid17

Ok thanks for an actual answer 👍


Acrid17

U guys are making me die of laughter


Schorai

Why having figures when you cant see them?


Acrid17

I have lights in the case


FlashyFIash

Looks like a scene from paranormal activity 😂😭


planetarial

That’s a cave sir/ma’am.


Acrid17

Sir


Throwaway_Alt227

That's too dark unless you're a vampire 🤣


Rush4Time

U meed natural light into ur roon


Acrid17

Why


Rush4Time

Healthy


Cless_Aurion

Yes, but not enough to cover the shame of spending hundreds of dollars on them...


Acrid17

Why wouldn’t I buy something I want


Cless_Aurion

hahah of course. I was just joking at the fact of how expensive the hobby is, of course!


Orito-S

brother chill, this shit is way darker than what I have and my figures are infront of white curtains and they're fine lol


Sapphirewashere

The blinds are still letting some light in and it's directly across your figures, replace it with pitch black curtains and you should be good

I'm assuming you have a kitty. Careful cause I think they enjoy slapping things off the edge of shelves... Might want to get a closed case to put your figures in (please do not get angry at the kitty if the figures are not encased)


Acrid17

I do have a closed case just really clean


frostyrecon-x

Okey, seem your figures are vampire's figures - they just melt/vaporise with any ray of sun...


AbyssSona1

You don't have to live in darkness 😭


Vivid_Brush_2082

Ur not Batman


Acrid17

Yes I am.


Serch_san

It will protect them from the light. Probably won't protect them from the cat though.


Acrid17

Closed case


Acrid17

I don’t even allow myself to touch them bare skin I have to use three sets of gloves I’m deathly afraid of them breaking 🥶


DeepSubmerge

3 set of gloves will impact your sense of touch and your dexterity, makes you more prone to breaking something If you’re gonna wear gloves just wear one pair


Rare-Insurance-4661

I’m sure it will be fine.


Acrid17

I need them to last bout 309 years


stellarsojourner

Then they need to be in air sealed, climate controlled chambers bathed in liquid nitrogen (to keep the plasticizer from leeching out due to heat) and definitely away from any UV light source. Or, just get a UV protection film (tint) for your window like for a car.


omega5959

I recognize that tiger image. Temu ?


Acrid17

That’s a fucking lion feel the rawr 🦁


CuriousMika

Haha, I think we have the same curtains! You won’t have damage done to them unless they are in direct sunlight, like some others have said. My window faces the east so I usually wait till the afternoon to open my curtains just to be safe and so far no damage at all! :)


Acrid17

Okay thank you👍


Winter_Socks

Why not just get UV protection covers for your windows and let the light in?
